Yeah I was lucky enough to have a job unaffected by COVID, and wasn't able to take my kids on holiday or do the usual leisure activities, so I put my entertainment budget into guitars ...

Didn't realise you had one of these as well. How are you finding it? I'm still in the honeymoon phase I think.

Good form Rob.

You need to sort the paint on that skirting board though.

They make them in left handed too.

Cancelled my Coronet order and got this instead. Only faults I can find are scratchy frets and the P90 could be raised. Aside from that I’m completely blown away by it.

Awesome - good choice. Should be pretty easy to sort those things out.

Lol which one?

The DC I just got and I haven't put it down. Doesn't feel like a £150 guitar at all. Same with my HB Jazz Bass.

Guess need more time with it but would say get one if you're curious.

I bought my JB-75 a few years ago - Still can't get over how good it is... bloody heavy though

Been considering a Dc since they came out - I don't have a p90 guitar

Woah. The thing is super hot. I always check them whenever I go to Thomann's website. I think you did the right thing quitting the pre-order of the Coronet. They are basically the same thing, HB is much cheaper, I've read/heard only good things about the quality of modern Harley Bentons. On the other hand almost all Epiphones I've played/owned were just ok at best

Is yours the standard one with a modern C neck shape or is it the one with a fat neck? I used to like a full rounded 59 profile best, but after playing a couple of modern C necks I like them as much now because I feel like Hendrix all of a sudden being able to easily wrap my average size hand around the neck all the way to the upper frets. Of course I can't play for shit, but it's an awesome feeling anyway
