9-42 meets Atkin Guitars

The one where Ant & Alister banged on about Marillion.

Actually not just Marillion, they got quite excited about Richard Hawley as well.

Despite his youthful Clooney-esque (his description) good looks, Alister has been building guitars for well over 25 years.

Known mostly for acoustic instruments he pioneered models with aged finishes and has built guitars for a who's who of artists including the aforementioned Mr Hawley, Paul McCartney, Graham Coxon & Chris Difford.

We chatted about all the above, as well as his collaboration with the Buddy Holly Foundation and his ring binder full of cease & desist notices.

P.S before all the RH fans pile in the song that Alister was referring too is of course called Remorse Code not White Lines - apologies for the confusion - but to be fair that line is repeated as the refrain in the chorus!
