Dear sir. Its about time these so-called guitar makers got their act together, i mean for goodness sake can't any of them manage to make a guitar without leaving a blood great gaping round hole in the front! bloody bad craftsmanship i say! just think how much valuable music can leak out whilst one is playing, not to mention one could easily lose a sock or even a small fridge into the gaping chasm therein. REALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bad show! Ann Grie, nee Ger.
