Not acoustic, I know, but Johnny is a great player. Here are a few videos of him at Fretmarks Music in Bedlington trying out some of the guitars they have. Johnny has had a decent spell of health this year - they've finally got moved into a decent house, and he's spent much of the last year in the garden. Fresh air and not living in a damp house have helped him along greatly. Let's hope he stays well for as long as possible. Skype lessons! If any of you would like a private Skype lesson with Johnny, drop me an email and I'll put the pair of you in touch. Best, Nigel www.nkforsterguitars.com

Thanks Nigel. Glad to know he's doing o.k. He did a gig in Doncaster a couple of weeks ago that I'm kicking myself for missing! That Premier Vox sounds amazing!

Johnny is booking the odd gig with promoters who he's known for years - they book him knowing he may well have to cancel at short notice. His health is precarious, so going back on the road just isn't an option. If you get the chance to see him, go. He's world class. Next best thing - book a skype lesson with him. We did a video years ago - Johnny isn't a technical teacher or player - it's all about feel. The Premiervox is a Rickenbacker without the name. When they first came to the UK they put a PremierVox nameplate on for some reason. It was me Grandads. I never play it so I gave it to Johnny. The "horseshoe" pickup sounds great eh?
