Sent me on a UTube journey
Thanks Murph
She has such an old soul. I love her banjo work, She's been doing it since she was a little kid, and has traveled and played with some old legends.
Not me, but other old legends...

The last one passed over here, and this one does too.
All of the motels, and campgrounds and stuff are already booked and they're selling t-shirts.
Go, capitalism....

Nora is a banjo player I've been following for a few years. Plays a lot of old music.
This Epi caught my ear, reminds me of Dave Rawlings.

Clean and sober is a good thing.
Keep it up.

A thirsty man walks into a store...
He fancies a glass of wine, an older redheaded woman approaches him.
"Hello sir, how may I serve you?"
"I'm interested in a lean red with a delicate body and nice legs, something French might be nice."
The woman smiles, "Certainly sir, follow me and I'll see what I have in store"
The woman leads him past the counter and into a dimly lit back room. She shuts the door behind him and immediately disrobes.
"Gah, I, uh, wha...."
The woman replies, "Your first time in a brothel huh? Well if it helps your nerves there's a winery next door."- 1

Grandpa Joe was being taken by his grandchildren to his new nursing home.
The family bought Grandpa Joe in on his wheelchair.
A kind young nurse met them. "Welcome to our nursing home! Let me show you around!" She said in a friendly tone, as she took the wheelchair.
She wheeled him into a large room full of sofas, with a big TV screen. "This is the lounge. You can relax and-" Grandpa Joe suddenly slumped to one side. The dutiful nurse quickly caught hold of him, and gently sat him up.
Than she wheeled him to a room with tables and chairs, where some elderly residents were enjoying lunch.
"This is the dining room. The food is really -" Again, Grandpa Joe suddenly slumped to one side. Unfazed, the nurse caught hold of him, and sat him up.
Finally, she wheeled him over to a small room with a comfortable looking bed. "This is where you'll be sleeping. There is an en-suite bath-" Again, Grandpa Joe suddenly slumped over to one side. The nurse patiently caught hold of him, and once again sat him up.
After the tour, the grandchildren rushed over to Grandpa Joe. "What do you think? Isn't it lovely? That nurse seems sweet?"
Grandpa Joe looked grumpy.
"Sure, the place seems alright, and the staff are nice. But why the hell won't they let me fart in peace???" -
What a sweetie...

J45 Custom Ebony.
I love the ebony board on my '30 J-45 Rosewood. Nobody knew back then, well I surely didn't, that ebony was to become unique.
That's a beauty, Dave.

All Epiphones don't sound bad. That's a ridiculous blank statement like why do Chevys suck.
My daughter has a J200EC (it's Indonesian) that is a fantastic guitar for the money. I spent an hour with it last week. I'd gig that guitar in a New York Minute.
It's never going to sound like one of my Gibsons, but for about $500 (10/12 years ago) you can't beat it. It's totally gigable, stays in tune, is loud, large and in charge.
It's those Mexican Martins that suck.......

Poor kids without cable/sat or internet don't get cartoons for free anymore.
That's why they're mad.

Ike.
But I remember the cartoons weren't on one Saturday in Nov. of 1963 because JFK had been shot.
Cartoons had never been cancelled before.

Not super stoked on how the element sounds when plugged in..... and sounds nothing like it sounds unplugged.
I mic mine with an SM57.
Someday I'll get an ETL.

I like the new guard. I think.
I've been digging the GHS Vintage Bronze strings for quite a while now, however I prefer my action higher.
Best of luck, Buc.

A great live record in a time of great live records.
Yep. They really figured out live recording around that time, and there were some great bands in their peak.

When Gibson gets serious about inlay, nobody does it better. And the SJ-200 is for sure a tone master. I imagine Ren gave it some special magic ala Loar.
It's a beautiful and great sounding guitar. Too fancy for me, but a helluva job I must say.

I swapped off a '72 Les Paul Recording that I kicked myself for many times. That was my second Gibson, the first Les Paul, and I gigged that guitar so much in Mesa/Phoenix and then for a decade plus down along the Gulf Coast (Lake Charles/Beaumont/New Orleans) that I wore the frets to the board. When I relocated to the Heartland around 1994 it was nearly unplayable, I was nearly broke, and I didn't have any contacts and needed a workhorse quick and swapped it even for an American Strat. About 800/900 bucks at the time.
I've since gone all acoustic and rarely play my electrics, although I still have a few.
I still miss the Les Paul though, I learned how to be a working musician with that guitar.

I bought a tusk saddle and sanded it myself for my J-45.
I'm one of the weirdo's who LIKE Tusk.
