Maintenance Weekends
Dear Malcolm,
Just a quick message to say once again how much I
enjoyed and valued
the weekend. Although I'd read previous comments I was
still amazed
at how much ground we covered and at the difference I
was able to
make to my bass. Chris not only dispensed a seemingly
endless amount
of information but imparted a great deal of confidence
too. Many
thanks too for the lift and the accommodation, and to
the cook -
treacle tart and perfect Sunday morning scrambled eggs
were just two
highlights of many!
With best wishes,
Mike. Maintenance Oct 08
Hi All,
Let me also add my thanks to Chris and Malcolm
for a great weekend, I feel that I really benefited a
lot from the experience. It was also a great experience
meeting the rest of you and learning from the different
perspectives and approaches you provided. Enjoyed the
short jam on Saturday night too.
I took the Tele to band rehearsal last night and as I
thought might happen, I've picked up a couple of setup
projects; a bass and an acoustic.(it's amazing what
people will ask for if they think it's free) I may
practice on them before I tackle any more of my own
guitars. 
Like Brian, I've already made a foray onto the internet
and ordered up a fret profiling tool. I'm still trawling
through websites looking for a suitable set of nut files
to complete my set of "major tools". A visit to my local
hardware store will provide the remainder of the
important items (I hope!) Maintenance Oct 07
Hi Malcolm,
Thanks for a fantastic weekend. As well as
learning much more than I had thought possible, I found
the whole experience very relaxing – and in such lovely
surroundings too.
I’m afraid that I neglected to take note of the names or
web addresses of suppliers of nut files and fret files,
so if you could email me them I would be most grateful –
I spent yesterday buying everything else!
Looks like I’ll probably see you at the show too, thanks
again
Mike

Hi Malcolm,
Just wanted to say thanks for the weekend, it was brilliant! The
hotel is extremely comfortable, the food great and Chris's expertise a great
asset to the Guitar Weekends. I've started building up my tools and have a
few guitars to get started on.
Thanks again and hope to see you at the guitar show."
Cheers, Pete.
