Guitar Making Forum? PDF Print E-mail
Written by Bill Quinn   
Tuesday, 26 February 2008

Internet forums are becoming increasingly popular.  We are thinking of setting up a UK forum for people to discuss guitar making.  At the moment we have no idea how popular this will be so we are looking for you, our visitors, to give us some feedback on the idea. 

Why not check out the poll on our homepage , in the left hand column, and register your vote.  With over 3000 of you visiting the site each month, we should get a good feel for the interest in a forum.
