It came with a brown Lifton case with a brown interior not pink. I found this in my storage locker the other day and thought it needed some attention. 😎👍
I cannot express enough gratitude to everyone that I cannot express enough gratitude to everyone that has donated so far. We are hoping to hit our goal in the next two weeks. We have given out almost 50 packages to date to musicians in need of help. Thank you.. 😎👍 @keepingthebluesalive

Had a blast recording with my friends yesterday! @stevelukatherofficial @sterlingball Don’t worry, we did the session with the latest holographic technology from our friends in Silicon Valley. All the while strictly adhering to the Mayor’s new restrictions and mandated “One Take” sterilization of guitar strings policy. I don’t want no trouble you dig? 🤷‍♂️😎👍

The one on the right is one of my favorite guitars that was highly modified in 1972 with vintage Gibson pickups. Those of you who have attended the Rock Candy Funk Party shows @bakedpotatojazzclub will recognize it as one of my go to guitars for that band. 😎👍

It’s @gibsonguitar ES-175 day here in Nerdville It’s @gibsonguitar ES-175 day here in Nerdville Ca.. a gaggle from the 1950s and 1960s. Left to right: 1956, 1955, 1964, 1964(forgot I had a sunburst one) and 1968. All that’s left to do is crank up my copy of “Yes Songs” on vinyl and enjoy the ultra modern, austere lifestyle I have set up for myself. 🤷‍♂️😎👍

Flashbacks of OJ and AC Cowlings infamous drive up Bundy aside it was nice to pretend things were back to normal for just 30 mins. 😎👍 ( tweed deluxe courtesy of the Nerdville museum of vintage amplifiers and hand sanitizers)
I have been really into Jethro Tull lately especia I have been really into Jethro Tull lately especially Martin’s tone on Stand Up and Thick as a Brick. To me it’s what a Les Paul Standard and 50 watt Marshall should sound like. Here I am attempting a bit of baroque inspired blues riff with a similar setup (9-0917)only the Marshall is 20 watts. After all it’s a small room and I am not a barbarian. 😎👍

Here’s a neat one I found last year. 1964 @gibso Here’s a neat one I found last year. 1964 @gibsonguitar ES-335TD that I purchased from @momsmusicstore . They had it on consignment from the original owners family. ( pictured sitting around the Christmas tree. ) A very mint and very good sounding guitar. 😎👍
Rest In Peace Lucky... There was a time when this Rest In Peace Lucky... There was a time when this man was unstoppable and poised to be one of the greatest of all time. A proud Central New Yorker and a hellava nice guy. He will be missed.
I don’t call it the “Havana Strat” because I I don’t call it the “Havana Strat” because I like Hemingway daiquiris.. This guitar went to Cuba with @kevthecave and myself a few years ago on a scouting mission. I hope to revisit the project one day. Until then enjoy some jump blues in B Flat ( my favorite key these days)without a pick and a morning cigar made in Havana. 😎👍
