Last edited Thu Sep 27, 2018, 06:05 AM - Edit history (1)

Forty years later since I decided to explore the fretboard,the torch has been passed to our one son. I find it amusing that guitarists who were my heros growing up in Appalachia is now idols to our one son. Hendrix Stevie Ray Vaughn Duane allman billy gibbons Elmore James to name several. And as I lay here on the couch I am listening to him pick on his prs sc 245. His comments dad I love this guitar , I say to him it is awesome guitar son shine you worked all summer and you earned it. It is a tone monster. He replies dad it just feels awesome in my hands. Ok well put it away go and eat breakfast and brush your teeth get ready for school.
