This truly is a Tory-made recession.
1. Boris hobbled us with a needlessly hard Brexit deal and a ridiculously poor Covid response.
2. Truss crashed the economy and wrecked the bond markets and pension schemes.
3. Sunak continued with the Tory orthodoxy that the only means of controlling inflation is interest rates. It was the wrong medicine because the inflation wasn’t driven by customer demand, it was driven by profiteering off the back of energy price greed that the Tories let big business inflict on us.
And it all goes back to the free-market poison injected by Thatcher. I rest my case.

It’s supposed to make them look “authentic” but I’d rather it wasn’t there. I’d have preferred to use an E27 fitting but that would’ve meant butchering the shades.

I like the idea of putting together what you like. Some of the wood grain bodies look really nice, and obviously each one is unique.

I like that shade of blue. Not something you see too often, and I think it suits a high gloss finish. I’m a bit like that with colours: Some only work in matt or soft Sheen finish and others only work in high gloss. I’m just surprised everyone else doesn’t feel the same way. To me the colour and the level of reflectiivity are inseparable. The exact same shade with a different level of reflectivity simply isn’t the same shade in any real sense.

Might have to buy another neck for the new guitar body. Im after a early 1960's look & i think the neck i have being blonde Maple head may look too clean & modern, where as a Roasted Maple looks mellow vintage
Be another £120.00
