Sorry I forgot,have any of you eagle-eyed pickers
noticed that the 4th and 5th tuning keys on the
E9th neck are missing, Eric Snowball could'nt throw
any light on it( him like me are getting old and
can't remember things like we should )perhaps Tom
if he reads this can shed some light on it.
All the best
Frank Bloomfield. Corfu

Theres strings on that neck,,, it looks like their are only 6 strings on the Low side of the neck,,, you can see them in the headstock,,, looks like there might even be some fingers missing out of the changer as well!!!!

Hallo Boys
The picture has'nt come out that well on the Forum
but I have the original glossy photo and all the
strings appear to be there except the 4th and 5th,
as I said I can't remember where the photo was
actually taken but as Tom's bar and pick pouch is
on the top I can only assume it was a gig somewhere
in the UK, it was a long time ago !!
All the best Frank
