Hi,

If you're interested, I just posted my almost-there Bombshell transcription on another thread:

Hi, looks good.

Through nothing more than habit, I prefer the abc notation and use the EasyABC software which can be found free on the web. This online editor is pretty good too:...

I like abc, and in fact have a fairly complete transcription of Bombshell. Let me know if you would like me to post it.

Hi Alan, a quick hello from another Scot - from Edinburgh but now down south in St Albans. Where are you based? Did you know that Chris Thile's playing in Edinburgh in November?

There's another interesting Andy Manson creation here on ebay.co.uk which someone might like to buy and report back on...

I'm ashamed to say that I was recently in Manson's guitar shop in Exeter,...

After seeing Sierra in a tiny pub in London (amazing!), I've been learning Bombshell.

To help me, I've transcribed the tune in standard notation (using abc) and would be keen to share it with...

Hi,

I was wondering that too, but couldn't find it anywhere.

So I had a go at transcribing it and think I've got it pretty close. If you spot any mistakes let me know.

I've attached the tune...
