Blast from the past!
Manson Classic T style.
I spent many a happy day helping Hugh build these back in the ‘90’s. Nice to see this one still being gigged, time to go hum free, replacing the Muy Grande in the bridge with Seymour Duncan’s Little ‘59.

Hello old friend - there’s a good chance I QC’d you back in the late 80’s/ early 90’s when you were first imported by John Hornby Skewes & Co Ltd in Yorkshire after I studied luthiery at Leeds College of Music. Fret dress, set up with D’Addarios, ready for another 30 years of shredding. Serious wear on this one, so extra pleased to have got her finished properly!

1979 Gibson “The SG”. I replaced the intermittent 3 way toggle switch, rewired the retro-fitted Dimarzio bridge pick up back in phase, and dressed the jumbo frets on the ebony board on this short lived walnut neck/body model. The owner has a knack for finding serious pieces and this is a brilliant example. Loads of fun to do and very handsome!

Lovely warm tone from this Mojo Charlie Christian P90 Soapbar, and loud given its low(3K ohm) impedance. Unusual mounting dealt with, and a nice upgrade of the P 100 in this 1997 Gibson Les Paul Special, plus D’Addario XT’s. Royal!
