The late Dave Shannon once borrowed one of my mandolins because he''d been booked for a session at Strawberry studios and didn't have one (and wasn't used to playing one). Needless to say, he played it in mandolin tuning.

Just as an asside, when he picked it up, I asked him who the session was for but he didn't know. When he brought it back he said that he'd asked the producer who's recording it was and he replied "Oh nobody you'd know. It's somebody from the midlands called 'Harvey Andrews' "
