Hello everybody,
I've just uploaded the first in a new "Iconic Instruments" series on my YouTube channel. Any of you familiar with the sublime work of Isaac Guillory will recognise this guitar straight away.
All the best

Lovely video. Nice to see the son is carrying on the guitar tradition.

Would love to own a guitar made in my birthday year 🙂 A relative gave me three bottles of expensive St Emillion wine from the year of my birth. I kept it for years before finally sampling it. It was horrible. looked up the vintage. It was a bad year. Gibson gets the award for inconsistency but Martin has had bad spells as well. Be careful ;-)

Hardly a golden era guitar wise... probably the most exciting thing I've found from my birth year was a Fender Bronco. It was dark brown. Says it all really...

I was born in the late 70s too... and now I know what happened to my share of the talent. I'm not bitter... Might give that tenor banjo a go though.

Such a relief to here that. Mind you I'm writing this from a Newcastle Hotel room which has a suspiciously large amount of brown it in.
