Killing For Company - Andy's New Guitar




I`am sitting next to Andrew on the settee , a few moments ago he was scrolling through his I pad when I spotted this video and asked Andrew if he could download it onto the blog for me -which he has just done , The I pad is a fabulous gadget - it acts as Andrews communication aid- it has a small keyboard ,display screen and synthesised speech-you type a sentence and press a button for the machine to speak the message you type . It also allows Andrew, internet access to all his favourite sites including facebook and myspace, and he can also download and read a book if he so wishes ! I`am now going to hand you over to Andrew -he is going to write a little bit of information about the video,
Hi all ,I met all the band KFC onThe Alarm tour 2010 and built up a friendship with their lead guitarist Andy "Glam" Williams as I used to help him hook up his amp ready for starting off the gigs, it was on the last gig of the tour we all got up to play on the encore and I passed Andy Mike's custom LHS white telecaster that I built for Mike for the tour Andy enjoyed playing it so much he commissioned me to build one for himself .
So here`s the footage he recorded and sent me to hear it in it's full glory, Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
Andy.

What a mellow sounding guitar! hehe. Would it be rude to ask what one of Andy's custom guitars sells for?? Not that I can play or afford one anyway, but just a nosey old gal!

I HAVE to go visit John. It's been eons since I commented...As you know, laptop probs. I'm at Starbucks after church today for a bit to try to do some catching up. Hope your weekend is going well. xx
