Congratulations Dave!! Good to know there's a decent MusicMan shop so close to the continent!!

 

[threeminutesboy]

Brillant !

Congratulations Dave ! Wishing you the best for this business !

 

[DaveB]

Thanks for all the support - I need you to buy from me though

Now what will become of your family business?

I've spent the last two years sorting that out and splitting it up so that each person gets their own share. I decided to do something different with my bit!

[Bungo]

Excellent news! I'm sure we can all stop grumbling about lack of stock in UK dealers now! I think the phrase will be 'one stop soution'?

I'm sure you will be offering us some great deals as well? Eh? Eh?

Just realised I will have a guitar on order with you as well (the JP Dargie Delight)!!! I promise not to start hassling you about delivery dates just yet though!

PS You sure about putting your own collection in the shop? Just thinking about those many be-studded teenagers queing up to add their buckle rash????

 

[DrBob]

Dave,

That's absolutely superb news.

Good luck in your new venture, as a man looking to buy a Rivera amp as soon as the funds allow, I look forward to doing some business with you before very long.

 

[DrBob]

Hang on I've just had a thought.

You're going to have to be a bit careful with this one.
In the same way that my Dad getting a job at a patisserie spelled the end of his 32" waist,
Isn't putting a man like yourself who to be fair already has 'a bit of a guitar collection' at the helm of a shop full of quality guitars roughly akin to Ollie Reed buying a vineyard ?

 

[Smellybum]

I've known this for a while now and had to hold back but now its all confirmed.

I have now agreed to buy www.machinehead.co.uk

I will hopefully be taking over the shop in October.

I am so stoked!

Dave

P.S. and I can stock the shop for years with my personal collection

Wooooooooooooooooo

Dave - top news, It's a great shop, I hope you make it better a kick the ass of certain chains in the UK!

 

[Mick]

Welcome to the club man, hard but enjoyable.

 

[shimi]

I WISH YOU GOOD LUCK

 

[W.Suitor]

Well done Dave, and I wish you every success in your new venture. Finally for us EBMM fanatics there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I will support you any way I can. Good luck!

 

[spkirby]

Thats cool Dave...

I think we now have a venue for a UK EBMMer's get together!

 

[Trev]

Congratulations - Machinehead already have one of the best reputations in the UK not only for stock but also for customer service - I've had 3 guitars and a bass from them over the years and each time the service has been second to none!

I wish you every success with your new venture and look forward to hopping on the train up to Hitchin to see what's on offer!

Trev

(EB Petrucci on the way - should arrive later this week!)

 

[Ali]

Oh no, I'll have split loyalties now!!! I love the guys at guitarguitar....but you're an EBMM forumite. Yikes. Ah well, I'll have to order a guitar from each of you when I get GAS again

How does the song go again... "D.I.V.O.R.C.E"?

 

[Jonny Dubai]

This is fantastic news. Congratulations and good luck. More quality guitars from a man who knows all about them.

Congrats again mate.

That's where I got my Axis from last week! Great shop, excellent service. They also do a great customisation service - check out their workshop page for lovely pics of a couple of Les Pauls with floyds on! All the best with this business venture, you are guaranteed to get some of my cash before too long...

 

[robelinda2]
