..... my full time job to pursue SC Relics Guitars full time. Provisionally, my last day is Saturday November 18th. Im feeling utterly terrified yet totally overjoyed at the prospect of working on guitars full time.
I have been in wedding and formal hirewear since I was 21 (im now 34). All the main events of my life so far have been played out there so im feeling mixed about making the transition. Ive also come to the point where I cant stand the wedding trade at all. Unfortunately, the customers who come in are becoming increasingly difficult to talk to. I have theories as to why this is but tbh id rather keep them to myself. My guitar customers have been a somewhat MASSIVE contrast and breathe of fresh air.
This has been possible due to working 30+ hours a week for over a year in order to build the brand, a reduction to our mortgage and paying off a lot of personal debt. Lower monthly outgoings means its now or never.
A massive thanks to all the customers who have helped make this happen. The driving force behind this has been my wife. She has never doubted me for a second and has put up with so much of my shit this year... she deserves a medal!

Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself

You know, when I went self employed some years ago, one of my good friends said...
"what the worst that can happen ? You just go back to your old job..."
I never did. Enjoy. Create your own world and dreams.
We'll have a chat early in the New Year
I hope it all works out well for you both.
