Nice sounds Dean!
Have you managed to get your hands on a G7th capo yet?!
If not, you're missing out and you should have a look and get in touch if you're interested...

I really need to get one of those USB turntables so I can convert "The Arrows" vinyls to my itunes directory.

Keep up the good work, Dean. Just don't go driving wrong way down one way streets in Germany no more.
