Nice one, Paul. Hopefully I'll be able to check it out in person some time this year.

My 'present to me from me' should be arriving at the office today or tomorrow. Nothing special but extremely useful!

Nice Tele Bill and Sweet conversion on the 330 Paul that looks Great.Im looking forward to seeing more pics mate.

Is it a crock pot? I got an awesome crock pot as well, but I didn't say anything because it wasn't music gear...

No, not a crock pot but that would be appropriate for an old crock like me!!

In a way it's similar because you can put lots of goodies in it......

I'm such a butt-head, forgive me, Paul A, for not mentioning your new toy.

I'm IN LOVE with your new 360WBOSSPC thingy. Do you do wedding ceremonies to guitars?

So Paul, you had the neck changed from 24 frets to 21??

The guitar was originally a 24 fret model. Dale Fortune came up with the idea of converting it to 21 frets to match the "OS" style of the guitar. I've never had a 21 fret WB-type guitar, unless one counts a 381, which is double bound, but also has the German carves on the bottom and top of the body, so it's a bit different. I don't think I'll miss the other three frets, and I've come around to liking the pickup spacing; it used to freak me out-I'd seen too many photos of 21 fret Ricks with necks snapped off right at the end of the neck/edge of the body.

Thanks Aitch, anytime. I look forward to your next visit!

OK...... not terribly exciting but extremely functional. Travelling space for effects, power and guitar leads, powerboards, straps, books, recorders, cameras, stands, spares, tools and all that other jazz that I would normally tote around in a huge sports bag!
Looks a damned sight more professional too..... even for a rank amateur like me!!

Nice one Aitch! Coingrats!!

You're not a "rank amateur"; at the very least you're a professional amateur. The number of songs you know and play well is encyclopedic, to say the least. On the Sunday of SCARF `08 I was a bit hung over from the previous evening's festivities, but you'd drunk the rest us under the table, yet were playing away like it was nothing. I couldn't remember more than 2-3 chords from each song, if that.

Very kind of you to say that, Paul..... aw shucks!

He`s lying and the red bags normally got beer in it.

Crawl back into your little hole, ya big haggis muncher!!

And you're wrong!!! I have a separate blue bag for the beer.........

Is the crock pot inside?

See, now I've gone cross-eyed. What a mouthful
