Just to let you know that after the recent MULTI MILLION POUND MAKEOVER, Hillsound's workshop facility, MI REPAIRS is now up and running. Combining Leonard's almost 40 years of repair experience with the most up to date, cutting edge tooling, jigs and machinery available. Ok, so not quite multi million but it was quite a lot anyway. Looking forward to see you sometime soon. All the best, Leonard.

A wee object of interest today in the shape of a 1970 Ricky bass needing a new nut - as it's a bit special I looked out something special for it in the form of a Water Buffalo Horn blank. No water buffalo were harmed in the making of this nut.
