Hi,
My name is Tony Hoffman, I am 46 yrs old and based in England.
I enjoy all kinds of guitar music, particularly instrumentals.
I currently publish a fanzine about Hank Marvin and The Shadows and in February 2010 will launch my new Ventures magazine 'The Ventures International Review'.
£2.99 (UK) £4.99 (overseas)
Hallmark guitars have an advert in the first issue and after reading reviews on this Mosrite Forum I'm hoping to take delivery of a Custom 60 in the near future.

Welcome to the forum, Hoffers. Hallmarks are a good choice in guitars.

Re: Hello from Hoffers in Yorkshire
As soon as I read the name "Tony Hoffman", a bell started ringing
...most probably came across it in Gerald Woodage's Ventures Resurgence magazine during the time that I was a member and also in many a Shadows link etc.
Welcome to the Forum Tony...and I hope you get your 60 Custom soon so you can enjoy it, because ye shall

Welcome to the forum, Tony! You won't regret the Hallmark purchase - I have a 60 Custom, and am seriously considering another. We'd like to hear more about the Ventures mag, if the cost isn't prohibitive here in the states.

Welcome to the forum, Tony! I've got a Hallmark coming too, as soon as Bob Shade gets the cases in--I'm hoping this week! Your Ventures 'zine sounds cool--I've been a Ventures fan since the early '60's, and I'm a big Shadows fan too.
