Hello chaps :-)

OilCityPickups

To celebrate my change of screen name I'm just saying hello to everyone again! Goodbye to 'The Guitar Weasel' the name that has served me so well from the old 'Music Radar days' and hello to fully identifying with my business name! 

I have been in the background for a while, due to some issues that you all may know about ... but I'm back and bad, and ready to rock lol. I feel more comfortable now my business name accompanies my posts and we can cut the confusion :-)

Anyway, for those who may not know me ... I'm the boss of Oil City Pickups ... sometime metal guitarist (in the late 70s/80s) and recovering chocolate hobnob addict ... 
Opinionated on all things guitar, and all things pickup in particular ... always on hand for technical advice, either about my own products ... or in general about pickups (I live em ... and basically don't have a life). 

Oh and I'm Ash

Wearing  a hair shirt and flagellating myself regularly with old copies of Guitarist mag seems to work for me ...

From the oil industry that was there!  It's a nickname!

Good man. Now back to some serious business. When can we have more of your excellent posts on pickup restoration?

Welcome back Ash. Incidentally, did I see your name in the credits of a TV programme a while back? 
I can't for the life of me remember what it was about, but it caught my eye.

It's always possible, some of my older work as a professional photographer occasionally gets credited in all sorts of odd places :-)
