Was great to see you, John! Really glad to finally get a go on a couple of falcate braced guitars, too. They both blew me away with their sound and the craftsmanship. Can't wait till I build one as good! Was nice to get some feedback on one of my builds as well.

I'm sure it isn't too often The Castle gets those sorts of guitars in there! (I was down around Brighton at the weekend and got to try a few new ales. Best thing about travelling around in England!)

Looks like a lovely bunch of wood you found. One day I'll get a bandsaw and do the same.

Hope your flight isn't too bad!

Looks like you have converted another soul John, he too has crossed to the darkest of sides and joined the 'Whatnot Cult'.
