Peter Cook - Guitars, Basses and July. . .
Any regular readers will know I did a big feature on Peter cook, the guitar builder - perhaps most famousfor his work with The Who.He also made many other instruments, including these. Quite a long time ago, Peter and I arranged another meetingbut Peter was not well at the time and that has sort of beenon-going, for some time.In his own words, he said that the "Nuking" was over and heis back in the loop.So, after some considerable time, we are going to meet up,early next year and chew over some of the other work he did,as well as catching up.I am pleased to tell you that he is back out gigging again, with "July" July - The Band I had a lot of readers follow Peter's story, so. . . . sit tightand I'll keep you posted!!The Reeve is coming on nicely - pics and details to follow!Cheers. :)

Peter Cook, Guitar Builder - Eric And Peter Meet . . .
Tuesday was an exciting day, one that I had been looking forward to for some time. Being an enthusiast for hand made guitars and "one off" instruments, I have always had an admiration for the makers and it would be hard to mention custom guitars and basses,...
