Colan Campbell (formerly guitarist with the Australian folk band Extradition): "Firstly, if anybody is in touch with John then please give him my regards. We haven't met since 1965 when I went to his house to buy one of his experimental guitars. It was a Brazilian rosewood six-string, extremely deep, and the label simply read 'This guitar was made by John Bailey'. I played it throughout my years in Australia, including on a couple of albums, but it was stolen in Paris during the late 1970s. I'd dearly love it back, of course, and perhaps John has a photograph of it as I do not. He'll remember it, I'm sure, as he let me have it for a fraction of its worth. Anyway, good luck to you all and may the John Bailey legend flourish, deservedly."
