Malcolm plays a rare Sunrise guitar, so rare, nobody has heard of it. Malcolm would be grateful for any info on this make. He has extensively refurbished it, and added new pickups.
Malcolm, on occasion plays with Brett Marvin and the Thunderbolts, and with his brother, the Brett's hotshot slide artist Graham Hine. He also plays with many London blues outfits, especially Dr K's Blues Band.
Malcolm writes:
"I've been making and repairing guitars for over 35 years and repairing amplifiers for over 25 years now. I began making guitars because it was the only way I could get hold of one. I built my first guitar when I was 14 .I fitted a pair of burns pick ups and sold it for £6.00. Thinking that maybe there was a living to be made in the unlikely event my bid for rock stardom failing, I took a 3 year guitar making course at the London College of Furniture. On completion of the course I carried on making and repairing guitars joined Andy's Guitar Workshop in central London where I gained much experience repairing guitars. I started working for Fender in 1980 repairing guitars, amplifiers and Rhodes electric pianos. I returned to Andy's guitar shop, to take over the electronic repair side of the business, in 1994. I have repaired literally thousands of guitars and amplifiers and as a gigging musician (still) I appreciate the importance of having optimally performing instruments and amplification."
