Just picked up a Shawn Lane model from the Sounds Great dealership in Manchester this past weekend.
I have been waiting a while to see one come up for sale in UK - so great timing.
Having no problem adjusting to the flat fingerboard , as I also play Parker Flys with compound radius.
I am playing with the setup to see just how low that action can be with trem set to floating:-)
1 question though - do the current Lanes has SSteel frets ?
Does anyone know? Maybe Patrice if you get opportunity to read this? Many thanks for building such a fine instrument btw.
Hayden at Playmusicpickup.co.uk also managed to carry out a great video review before I managed to go in and buy it :-)

Thanks Hayden - you certainly saved me the job of putting up a video review. My only worry was Rick was going to call me and tell me you decided to buy it yourself!  ;-)
Great website btw - I will post links on a few other forums to draw attention to it.

You still absolutely have to make a vid. As for a Shawn Lane sig, I needed to think on it for a while but I do believe I might be joining that club sooner rather than later.
