Thanks for the heads up pickersditch!!! I've snapped it up!!
Insane postage to the UK, but worth it as the seem to be very hard to come by.
Thanks very much David

Hi guys
Quick update, the guitar is all sorted and starts it's journey back to be today!! Here is what's been done:
tilted the neck new mushroom stoned the frets change the bridge saddles new tail block gaskets all over the place made the screw heads smaller as they were not sitting correctly on the cover plate
Mike has been great to deal with and even with postage to France and back it has been a lot more reasonably priced than I was expecting and I know I'm going to have an amazing guitar at the end of it!!
It should be back to me around Wednesday/Thursday this week.
Still waiting on the decal too but that's due by the 9th.
All the best David

Hi guys
It arrived safe and sound yesterday!! It's amazing, Mike has done an excellent job on it!! It's sounding and playing fantastically.
I haven't had a chance to put the decal on yet, too busy playing but I'll post a pic when I do.
If I can work up the nerve, I may even post a video at some point too.
Thank you all for your input and interest!!
All the best David

Did Mike put an offset spider in? Or did the neck adjustments etc sort it out? Cheers TT

Hi TT
Still got the original cone and spider which I was happy about, just a small adjustment to the neck angle did the job. I know my ears aren't pitch perfect, and I have never specifically tested it with a tuner but I haven't really come across any intonation problems, but I don't play a huge amount beyond the 5th fret without a slide.
All the best David
