HOWARD - "I bought this guitar in 1960; I still have the bill of sale. The shopkeeper had never seen anything like it and asked me to leave it at the shop on show for a week. You can imagine what I said! 

I ordered it especially after seeing Bert Weedon playing one. I remember very clearly opening that case and seeing it for the first time. The tears welled up.....it was so beautiful."
