and one of the 'set-up' photos:


I have also bought a 1979 all-original Banjocaster as an investment piece for my grandson. I paid £650 at the time, but it's already probably worth four figures:

Now the English MLP Royalty is complete ( Cookie is a VIP, right ?? )

I agree with The Sentry, Ape should get VIP status for his helpful videos

Congrats Drude and Vasco! I was thinking the same thing - that you both deserved it - after the RMC mess.

There's a lot of folks here who are smarter than I am, better players, better builders, better modders.

I just feel sort of priviledged to hang out and learn stuff...even from Dennis!

PS: IF I can knock off Bobbo's count, I may ask for the title of....MLP Cerberus. ( )



(But only if I can do it..and if someone else beats me to it...all the better! )
