20.01.2022 Hello hello!! It’s been a while and COVID hasn’t helped at all. The great new news is; I’ll have my own new workshop this September and will be able to work on a lot of the guitars I have stored and a lot of them need good make overs. So we will be back in business really soon and most likely September. If you have an urgent request, of course we will be able to assist and try our best to make things happen. Happy to chat to anyone out there!

16.01.2022 Know someone who could benefit from playing music? Down in the dumps and want to play? We donate anonymously Guitars (acoustic and electric) to those who need them. We needn’t know who or what the reasons are, we are just there for you, family and friends. We have donated to care projects also and are happy to assist schools.

09.01.2022 Hey guys!! There’s been a bit on lately and we’ve had a great response to some guitars that are needed. So much so that it’s becoming harder to assist (especial...ly when working full time!). So I am asking anyone out there in the community that wants to assist, whether it be to assist collecting, servicing and repairing guitars, spare parts and giving us a hand with more people on the ground that would be ace! Hit us up and get involved There are many out there that need us and need a boost to get them on the right path. Much love Kat and Terri See more

08.01.2022 Recently we had Thomas Embling taking the guitars into the units. (After being required to write a guitar string policy). This is the social work team, who will be working with the clients. Well done Abbey and team! Glad we could help out!

05.01.2022 Just a quick message to say THANKYOU so much to everyone who has contributed this year to the project. We’ve had a busy year and in a good way! Lots of people getting on board and lots of people getting the gift of music! We will be taking a Christmas break until mid Jan for now, however if someone is needing a guitar to ease some grief in their life still drop us a line. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone!!... See you in 2020!!! See more
