Paul,
I certainly have enjoyed it - it's a cracker!
I always enjoy visiting the TVS jukebox.
Cheers,
JB

I Would think it is unlikely it would take nearly two years make the guitars, in any case The Shadows were using Fender guitars on stage and television in 1963 and also in the film Wonderful Life.The earliest time they would use Burns guitars live would be early 1964 after they came back from Gran Canaria.
