Thanks Smelly... I just couldn't hold on any longer. I had this very guitar on my PC wallpaper for months when it was advertised at Envy months ago. It came up on Ebay so I offered the guy a trade for my two and the rest is history. I drove up to London after work today and did the deal. I am very very chuffed.

Nice one Kev!
I'd seen this one on Flea bay and wondered if any Knuck would take the plunge...

Yeah Kevin, it's always sad when you've got to give up some guitars. But it makes room for more. Congrats on the Al. It looks great. I never noticed the black pinstripe line on the BFR Albert Lee's before.

Wow! it makes me kinda jealous! What happened to your other Al? Did you sell it?

I traded my AL and ASS for this, a straight swap. He buys and sells a bit so you may well see them come up on Ebay. As Smelly well knows I have been gassing for one of these since they were launched. Just had to wait till the opportunity appeared.

Good things come to those who wait!
Funny, I nearly bought yours from Envy sometime last spring, ended up with the Y2D instead...when I saw it on ebay last week I started rethinking...
Glad a fellow forumite ended up with it!
Like you I've been gassing for a BFR Al ever since...but now with the HH Al...
I'll definitely get a BFR AL sooner or later but might need to thin out the herd!

Thanks all, I am very pleased. It's noticeably heavier than my previous AL, presumably due to the mahogany toneblock and the fact that the last was a hardtail. Plugged it into my little Roland Cube late last night, sounds wonderful
I wonder what happened to Sean and Envy. Met him at LIMMS last year, but then he seemed to disappear off the radar. Anyone know ?

I think he may be a victim of the recession?

That's a real shame if that is the case, he seemed a nice guy. His website is still up although it doesn't appear to have been updated for a while.
