I had a bad start to my day, at 3.00am my 90 year old mother, who lives with us, woke me up to say she had a bad pain in her chest. A quick call to the emergency services and within 5 minutes and ambulance with two paramedics had arrived (I think they must have beamed in) and gave her a 12 lead exam. They decided that she ought to go to casualty, just in case, so off we went and spent the next 5 hours having 12 leads heart monitor and blood tests and Chest X-rays. Anyway, the pain went, no heart attack and at 9.00am we were at home. Phew!
Anyway, an hour after we got home the door rang and a man delivered a parcel from Brad Goodman. Tell us what it contained I can hear you cry. OK I will, two absolutely killer sets of Cuban Mahogany (you kinda knew that didn't you). Well you can keep all your BRW and Macassar, Blackwood and Koa, this is the King and Queen of tonewoods. From being a bit down in the early hours Brad Goodman has made me a happy chappy. Thanks Brad, great service.
One set is going on to an OM with Euro top as hopefully my main performance guitar. The other set? Well, I have this crazy idea to build a cuban mahogany classical, there is precedent from the great man himself (no not Joshua)so I might try it. Whatever happens it'll sound like a guitar.
Oh, I guess you want to see a picture.
