I have a bit of sad news to relay.

Tim Baugh aka @Fretwired passed away from cancer a couple of weeks ago.
Tim hadn't posted much lately due to his treatment but those of us who have been here for a long time will remember him as a a thoroughly good bloke, passionate about music and guitar playing.

RIP Tim.

That’s terribly sad news. He was a smashing guy, very funny, very nice, always had a kind word or offered a way of looking at something to support another’s point of view in a heated argument. Argh that’s really sad. He was part of this community for, it seems like, for like 20 years. Thanks Octa for letting us know. Rest in Peace Fretwired
