VIRGO GUITARS

It was 1992, and I was holidaying in Malta with my family. My birthday was a few weeks away, and my Mum asked me if I'd had any thoughts about what I'd like as a present. We were watching a local cabaret band, and I realised I'd spent the whole time watching the guitarist... The guitar in question was a generic copy of Clapton's infamous 'Blackie'. There was a lot wrong with it, but the upside was I'd take it apart a lot, and thus learn how it was put together. As I learned to play, more guitars passed through my hands, and more tinkering ensued... Electric guitars and basses. One-off creations, either for general sale, or custom orders by request.
