Welcome!

Still in danger of standing on my own tongue here, after seeing that '62 Sonic Blue Strat and AC15 combination. And as for the drool, don't you realise my wife has got to wash this shirt?! :wink:

Aha, me thinks I also spy Rocky and a Ricky..

Care to spill the beans on any of the 'Music Ground UK' fake guitar business.

I heard a rumour Justin Harrison duped you with a old Hofner. Any truth to it mate, care to spill the beans old chap?

If not I perfectly understand.

A friend of mine makes replacement vintage hofner parts.

No, there is no truth to that rumor whatsoever. That answers that.

2 questions for you now.

An oxymoron is it not? I am looking for vintage Gibson parts. Know anyone?

Thanks for asking.

No mate not genuine vintage Gibson parts, sorry.

Hey it's a artisans world though. If your not after vintage parts then I'll ask around. I will be able to find accurate repro's.

Glad theres no truth to what I read. Better for you and the whole world in general.

Amen brother. That was pretty crazy (& entertaining) whoever put that whole story together. Odd, I still get the bad rap from the same 3 or 4 jealous guys . They know who they are. Some people are twisted that way I guess. Amps another story ....but as you know (?) I know me Hofners... :)

Well I can only assure you that I have no part in any character assasination attempts. To explain a little, the Music Ground shop is only 40miles from me. A friend of mine who deals in vintage guitars is often a victim of Justin Harrisons antics. Apparently Kirk Hammet got taken by him.

Thats about all I know for sure on the situation.
Hey atleast you didn't get taken, well done :wink:

Also very nice to see Joe Brown getting a look in on this forum. A very very underrated artist.
