Nice song . Phill bit unsure about the choice of the bm chord at the start of the bridge though but it is a really good song.

I always  say if  you  get  the  start  and finish  right   the  middle  looks  after its  self  and   no body  complains, You  know  when you've  made  a  mistake  the  audience  dont  always  realise. Dont  beat  your  self up  over  a  couple  of missed  chords ,I  remember  a  few years  ago   thinking  I'd  made  a complete  mess  of   Seven nation army  at  a  festival .At  the  end  of  the  set  we  called  out  to  the  audience  if  they  wanted  another  and  they  shouted  for   Seven nation army .

I got some info from the importer the other day backing  up what Doug posted this model sold in 1971 for about 30 pounds so it was comparable with models like the Eko Ranger it continued to 1980 and retailed at 85 pounds.more than double its original price  so taking into acount todays rate of inflation that would maybe equate to about 400  in todays market for a similar quality product.To answer Amys question it has a distinct resonance I'm playing with different  strings to  find what works best.As it has had a headstock repair at some time I'm being cautious asto how much tension I apply  but it sounds pretty good with a slide ,,the actions a little high compared to my Lag and Eko ,the tone is some where between the two ie brighter than the Eko  but not as bright as the Lag.I'll post a vid when I can

Any one  have any experience of Yasuma guitars from Japan,I know they  did a copy of a Martin d 25 in the 70s but its difficult to find any other info .I aquired one designated BMJumbo 155  some years ago with a broken head stock which I repaired ,said guitar was just used to decorate a wall in my music room ,however since getting it back to the UK I'm wondering if it has any value.I've contacted the importers BM music but no reply yet.

great  party  guys

Depends on the airline ,some allow it in a soft case as cabin luggage or you can buy a sear for it,Agean do this.I brought  my ovation as hold luggage in a semi hard case no problem ,but as I say it depends on the airline best bet is phone customer service for your airline.
