At 8:54am on April 10, 2013, Dano Collins said…: Hi Chris! I just won the fretted 4 string on feebay you had listed. Looking forward to it! Thanks. Dano

At 7:44pm on November 22, 2010, MrRandomWritings (Backwater Bri) said…: Hi Chris - thanks for your comment - the neck on that one does have an "arch" shape and is fixed only at each end so the bridge isn't against the neck. That is what accounts for the tone. I have just started doing it that way although I have had good results the other way too

At 8:28pm on August 2, 2010, MrRandomWritings (Backwater Bri) said…: Hi Chris - thanks for yoru comment. The strap was home made - it was a leather belt we found in a charity shop (I am always looking out for bits of leather like that) and plaited the ends to the right length - really comfortable and it suits that guitar

At 9:08am on May 18, 2010, bemuzic said…: thanks for the nice video comment : -)

At 10:43am on May 12, 2010, MikeBoy said…: Thanks Chris. So far have only built for myself and it is a blast. I like your 6 string. may have to give a 6 banger a try. I'm not much of a player and for sure not a singer. I'm very impressed and jealous by someone who can do both!

Keep up the good work!

At 9:48pm on March 30, 2010, bemuzic said…: no worrries, mmm never enough time!

At 4:40am on March 27, 2010, dg said…: I cant remember if I thanked you for the nice comment you left....so...thanks chris.

At 11:46pm on March 23, 2010, Keni Lee Burgess said…: Thank you Chris for your comment. Enjoy.

At 8:14pm on March 22, 2010, MrRandomWritings (Backwater Bri) said…: Thanks for yoru comment - I sold it to a guy on this site - was sad to see it go but they seem very happy together!
