Guitar
I have moved workshop - but I'm just next door to the old one.
The new place is still down the alley between the buildings at the top of Khyber Pass Road.
But now I'm at the end of the driveway.
Walk 10 paces past the old workshop and there it is - my fancy new place.
I've got a bit more space, fantastic natural light and it's quieter. I've been able to design this workshop specifically for my needs. I have a store room with racking to keep guitars safe and a main work area. It's got a great creative feel to it.
Here are some pics:
Hope to see you soon
