Guitar makers in the UK revisited.

Greetings (and please, no piss taking replies again)

I know what I want and I can`t buy it in a shop (so I`ll have to get someone
to make it for me).

I used to make instruments myself (violins, guitars, bouzoukis etc) but now
I live in a different house with no workshop (and very little time) and so I
can`t tackle it myself.

I`ve checked out Feline guitars and customer reviews seem very favourable
but there are obviously other builders in the UK.

What I would like is some kind person who has had a custom electric 6 string
guitar built to let me know -
a) what is it like - did it meet or exceed expectations?
b) who dunnit?
c) value for money (obviously taking into account that custom built stuff
isn`t cheap).

Cheers
Pete
