Music !

I have always it seems had a Guitar, I can remember the first one I got, it was a Kay, Arch Top F Hole,  it looked something like this one ! I am about 14 years old ! 
.

.

My next guitar was a Silvertone Electric Guitar,  I worked on a farm and saved up the whopping sum of $75.00 and got it from Mail Order at Spiegel, May- Sterns Catalog.

.

.I played in High school with a couple guys, we played mostly Country Music.

.

.

I was also pretty good on the Banjo and played it for years and I can still play chords and back up !  Above picture is when I came home and dug it out of the closet at Mom and Dads !

.

.

I was back then lucky as I came across a Guy hard up for some cash who wanted extra cash for "Liberty" and I bought this handsom electric Guitar for pennies on the dollar,  I learned I didn't care for Electric Guitars, Amplifiers and Microphones but would rather play acoustic.

I also picked up the Dobro Resonator Guitar !!!!!!  I love the "Twang" !!!!!

Above is my Son Jonathan learning some tunes from me !

.

After the Navy I kept Plying, while in the Navy I was always lucky enough that the COB liked Country Music and was allowed to play about the Ship when not busy !

.

.

My son was home from Portland Oregon last year and was lucky enough to get him to play a few tunes with the Old Man !!!  He is a fantastic player, far better than his Dad !!!!!!

.

.

I now have 2 Mandolins and am having fun with them !

Time to Take my Meds and relax,   Don't forget, Remember our Vets !
