Thanks to everyone who has played and signed it!
We went over to Rock Radio today to return Billy Rankin’s 12 string Washburn acoustic. It had been knocked over and suffered a bad break – the headstock had completely come off. I glued it back on, put on a new headstock veneer, re-bound it, put a new logo on, and refinished it. I was quite proud how it came out, and Billy was chuffed to get it back in one piece!
While we were there I had a look at their Bailey acoustic. We left the guitar with them a while back in the hope that it would get played by some of their rock star visitors, and it has. And they’ve signed it as well! How cool is that?
Billy told us that Donald MacLeod was playing it when the string broke, and then the bridge pin had got lost.
By the state of it, it looks like it’s had a bit of a hammering too, so I decided to take it to the workshop for an overhaul.
Let me know if you recognise any of the signatures! [email_link]
