    Re: A chance to buy a Sobell..

    I bought mine 6 years ago & paid £3,000 for it, which I have never regretted for one minute, as they are beautiful instruments.

    Because this Fletcher Tenortone Tenor Guitar only arrived yesterday evening, of course I just had to post a tune to show Jamie Dougan, it's maker, that it did indeed cross the Atlantic safely! :-)

    Re: Hard or Flight Case for a Tenortone?

    Luckily for me, I live in Ireland, so one thing I certainly don't need .. is a humidifier! ;)
