A couple of very fun jobs that recently passed through the workshop. Along with the Supro posted earlier, these two lovely vintage Fender guitars belong to Simon Raymonde, multi instrumentalist with the @cocteau.twins • • The first is a rare Fender BASS VI, made in 1962... it’s second year of production. The second is a Fender XII from 1966. Both were in a bit of a state after being in storage for a while. Both needed quite a bit of work to get them functional again, but I managed to repair all the electronics without having to replace anything, keeping them all original. Both have also had a full service and a Setup. • • Very special guitars, and I feel privileged to have them in the bench. • • • • #simonraymonde #cocteautwins #theeastbourneguitarworkshop #tegw #guitarworkshop #guitarrepairs #fretwork #fretdress #fretdoctor #guitarrepairshop #guitartech #luthier #guitarsetup #guitar #guitars #guitarist #guitarstrings #vintageguitars #vintagefender #fender #fenderguitar #fenderguitars #guitarsarebetter #rockstarguitar #gearybusey #guitarsdaily #geartalk #guitarspotter https://www.instagram.com/p/BzORTvQHiXZ/?igshid=1ju3ddb6ujtxx

1986 | Harold Budd, Elizabeth Fraser, Robin Guthrie, Simon Raymonde - The Moon And The Melodies Rough Trade | 4AD #haroldbudd #elizabethfraser #robinguthrie #simonraymonde @mrsimonraymonde @robinguthrieofficial Allmusic: Harold Budd, Elizabeth Fraser, Robin Guthrie, Simon Raymonde - The Moon And The Melodies Rough Trade | 4AD Allmusic: „The Moon and the Melodies is a collaboration between the Cocteau Twins and keyboardist/composer Harold Budd that fits soundly between the stylistic signatures of the two, both of whom make organic music that relies heavily on electronics. Budd's use of spacious treated piano and keyboard sounds (influenced by a previous collaborator, Brian Eno) combines with the Cocteau Twins' shimmering waves of guitars and Elizabeth Fraser's layered wordless vocals to create what amounts to a soundtrack to a dream about sleeping, with saxophones courtesy of Richard Thomas (of the now defunct Dif Juz) breathing further life into the music. Too bland to be the best introduction to the music of either, but a welcome addition to the collections of fans of both.“ https://www.instagram.com/p/CZRgK2JM_hi/?utm_medium=tumblr
