The Pearly Gates is one of the finest ‘replicas’ I’ve ever played - I nearly brought one when they came out -  Something like 15 years ago and that is when they cost less than a nice German motor

Not seen him for a while, but a customer not to far from you, use to own a nice Pearly Gates and a big BG fan
