My brain just triggered a few iconic moments from The Who's Live at Leeds with Proggy at the helm.

I can relate to that, thats one of the reasons i dont play Jags as much.

+1 Live @ Leeds
That album is one of the greatest moments ever recorded live imo. <3 it!!

'frampton dies onstage' would be a more tempting purchase if i saw it in a shop.

I was about to say I don't have any Frampton. But then I realised I have his latest album for some reason. Never listened to it though.

I do have doubles of one of the Phil Colins bigface albums.

to contour the body or to fix the slight mismatch on top?

out of my league for both of those.

Aye, i am a numpty.
I went through a shitty time with money and a lot of good guitars got sold. The GS, Westburys, Strats, Jags... i still have around 15 but theres a fair bit of chaff in there. ;P
