It's morning now, is it here yet? I'm feeling quite excited at the thought of a new guitar arriving - even if it's not arriving here

Reveal time! The guitar is a handmade guitar made by Terry Docherty in Newcastle. Solid Indian rosewood with Adirondack spruce top, mahogany neck and it is absolutely fantastic!, it has the fishman blend pickup system in it it blows the Gibson away. Here are some photo's, I will post better pictures and more information at some point, probably in a different thread
