Thanks Al, Waffle, Gordon, Gouanga and Kiwi, much appreciated!
Kiwi, we now have a system set up where we can ship directly from China to you. This saves an enormous amount of money on the shipping. You can contact Robin at Busker HQ and he will organise it for you. I wouldn't worry about placing your order until we know a manufacturing completion date. It is better to place your order direct from the manufacturer when we know they are in stock, rather than in advance.
Al, this will be a great addition to your MM / Busker collection.....it is a very cool guitar! Thanks for the order.
Best wishes,
Shine On Michael

Ditto - it looks a lovely machine ......
I was sneaky and ordered one from Robin at the same time I ordered my Lightning a while back......
Looking forward to the new addition to the family :-)
Cheers Mike

The UK number is: 01654 712671 Having said that we have been loosing the phone line on and off all day - I think it is the high winds but could be anything around here as our connectivity is never 100%

Hi Michael,
I really do not need any more guitars, no I don't, no, no ... oh well, what the heck, it looks so good and I'm sure sounds the same...I've sent an email to Robin to put in my order.

Hi Michael,
Can you describe the sound (subjective I know). of the guitar? It sure looks the part.

Michael, Looking at the photos the body appears to be very shallow - or is it just the angle of the camera? What are the actual dimensions of neck & body?

Hi everyone, Thank you for your orders, enquiries and interest in this new MM machine! I am very happy to answer any questions that you may wish to ask. The sound of a guitar is difficult to explain in words, so I will try and get a sound sample up on here this week. The depth of the body is the same as a National - 80mm at the bottom, tapering to 70mm at the heel. The reason it looks very narrow is because of the binding, which I think gives it what I call the 'style 0 effect'. Style 0s have the sandblasted band around the sides which makes them look narrower than they actually are. Here is a photo of the side.... Thanks.... Shine On Michael Attachments:
