Frets and Struts Section of EC Website
Just noticed that something has finally been put up on this page, a photo of one of EC's guitars (the one with the "Elvis" sticker from The Big Breakfast) with a note about how he wrote six songs on it in one day.
That's all I see, though...

Has anybody ever got a plectrum from Elvis - I've been given a towel that Steve used on the 1999 tour ( I use it to wipe the dogs feet when they come in from a wet garden) but never had a plectrum !

It's his if it's a 'Dunlop Tortex .60mm' I buy the same ones. Does it have a turtle on it ?
It's not the days when you leave me, but all I fear are the nights.

I go to the Frets & Struts page and it still says "Coming Soon".

That's weird. I see what you mean. Well, yesterday there was a little graphic of a photo of that guitar, with a handwritten note from EC about it....I just stumbled upon it, I didn't click on the link to it. I spun the website's wheel just for the heck of it, and when the song came up (Pony St.), it went to that page. Hmm....

Maybe if you keep spinning the wheel it will take you to other hidden gems on the website.
Who’s this kid with his mumbo jumbo?
