Had great morning tinkling away on the guitars. Played most of them briefly. Very pleased to say that nothing came close to the ones I had with me, so no GAS!
TNAG photographed and recorded my Kostal which should be up on their site soon.
Alasdair's old Sobell MS model is a very different guitar to mine - very narrow in depth and therefore a smaller air volume and geared up for flat-picking, so not really the same type of guitar at all, which is odd as it is the same model.
Very strange thing happened, as I pulled out of the business park entrance where TNAG is based, I saw a friend who use to live in the same village as me in the Pyrenees, what a coincidence.
More guitar fun planned for tomorrow and perhaps also Monday...

Popped in at TAMCO this morning - not the best time of day to be on the M25, but worth it.
Amidst all the 'luxury' guitars were some rather nice Kronbauers and a Taran - all the price of a factory made run-of-the-mill Martin or Gibson and offering so much more for the money.
A unique place - where else in the world would you get the opportunity to view and play so many world-class instruments side-by-side?
I'll try to upload some photos soon.
Jonny
