    Thanks gents. It's a nice achievement to have under the belt.

    The great thing about this forum is that everyone logs on for the same reasons.
    To share information, to learn from others and also to join in on others people's
    journeys along the way.
    I think it's a great way to learn and to also broaden that network of luthiery-minded people. With that in mind, any successes I've had can be attributed to an extent to this forum and the forumites that inhabit it. Thanks for joining in on the journey.

    cheers, Stu

    Congratulations, well deserved. Only surprising really because proper Australian stuff seems to get no credit in the wider world as a general rule. I look forward to seeing Bluestones all over the show - I know a few blokes who would be tempted, knowing blokes with the cash seems to be the trick though.......

    again, well done.

    Fantastic looking guitar that deserved to win. There was some good competition there as well, with several other very nice looking and well made guitars on show, so that goes to say something about your ideas as well as the obvious high level of craftsmanship. Well done Stu!

    gave it a workout through my lil 5e3 clone
    it was like the guitar was alive
    meaty with bite on the back and warm, full and sweet on the front

    Banned from GOTM ? well....4 GOTM wins does come close to a monopoly.

    To make it a level playing field they should have made you tie one hand behind your back, nope, make that both. he he he

    Thanks for the support everyone.
