I have been the owner of a Shaftesbury Guitar for approximately 14 years. Unfortunately, at present, it is not in working order, and I wish to get it repaired back to its former glory. I would like to find out its history to enable me to restore it. Unfortunately, I do not have much information about it, but I do have the following details, and wonder whether you may have any information regarding it. As I understand that there is a connection between Shergolds and some copies Shaftesbury made. The guitar was made in Italy, possibly sold by Rose-morris and was a sponsored instrument. Stock number 3265 Seriel Number 1784. It is telecaster shape with what I believe is a rosewood fretboard. It has a clef cut into the body. I would be grateful for any information you may have, or if you know of anywhere I could contact to find out any further information. My investigations so far have been unsuccessful. Thanking you for your time. Mark Potts.

Hi there guys! I've read the comments and it seems to me that no one really knows where have these guitars come from. Anyway, I'm in this research to help a friend of mine, who says his guitar has been evaluated, and there are people around here who say that these guitar are really worthy. Well, I dunno the serial number of it, but it is a Les Paul copy, surely black, and it has (I can't tell if originally) two DiMarzio pickups. Crazy thing is to know all these guitars have come to their owner's hands by strange reasons. This friend of mine can't really tell where did this guitar came from. But it's strange, coz we live in São Paulo, and it seems most of them are italian.

Well, if you have any information regarding these instruments, would you please get in contact? Thanx a lot.
