Feeling Heartbroken, Jetstar have lost this Beautiful converted Les Paul, we have known it was missing for a week now but remained hopeful it would turn up.... The owner's friend going to Singapore kindly offered to take it with them as checked luggage, the flight stopped at Denpasar and then the guitar simply Vanished into thin air... My guess is that it was spotted and then lifted from the cargo hold by someone wanting to make a quick buck.... Either way - I smell a rat... This place is like Daycare for your kids or even like RSPCA for animals - once your instrument has been here we kinda get attached and we feel a great sense of pride when any instrument leaves the workshop playing and sounding it's absolute best. So if we do major modification like the guitar in the pics we know even more of its secrets and feel maybe like (and you can call me a sook) like they are your kids! Very disappointed with Jetstar on this. They need to Pull Finger and go find this persons guitar - my guess is it is being played in bar somewhere or at best sitting in the corner of the Freight Room somewhere in Denpasar.. I hope you return safely to your owner. X

This is a very interesting read in a Current Issue UK Guitar Mag, it makes some great points and observations - ultimately the Corporate Sponsored Guitar Mag's reply covers it's CNC Mass Made Corporate Backed Arses by saying how good the Big 3 Companies Guitars are, and they are, BUT .... modern guitars are very consistent in sound and feelbut maybe lack a little "soul" or "individuality" sometimes... Eventually when it's all subjectively played, tested and put through it's paces - The phrase "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" rings very true.... Don't get us wrong! We LOVE Fenders, Gibson, PRS, Ibanez, Schecter, Godin, Jackson... etc... they are quality made and deliver the goods when serviced and setup but Guitar Players should also checkout the Oddball Stuff like One Offs and Handmades to see if the grass really is greener...
