Hi Don, Many thanks for your comment. Yes, I've seen it and it's a beauty isn't it. Maybe the two of them will meet up one day! Mine, JB100, is one of my favourite guitars. J's website is an Aladdin's Cave of information for anyone interested in his guitars. Best wishes

Thanks for your comment Espen - she is quite a special guitar for me. She plays as good as she looks - and even the string tree spacer and the truss rod adjuster nut are gold.
