Yeah, that's old Mr Khan, used to live next door to me, he was really shy, he'd always hide in the cellar when he got visitors, then one night I heard a lot of shouting and doors banging and he just disappeared! He's still got my sledge hammer, my drill and my lawnmower too!
Nice guitars you're building ! I'm a big canjo & diddley bow fan !!
