Telecasters are without doubt the best guitars ever made.

You’re bringing tears to my eyes.
I acquired a green, ’63 Fender Strat while playing at a private party in Birmingham, AL in 1975. I was able to keep it while going to college as long as I was working (full time) and playing gigs. I was finally finished with college, starting having children and got my first teaching job. Well, we had to eat and there were very few recipes for strats, so, I sold it (along with a 4-12, super reverb).
I wished I had gone on a diet.

And here I thought I was making a nice connection…early days of music with friends plus you were just in Vancouver……I took a shot anyway. ;)

Great post. I will be linking back to this for my music ed readers on my blog.

If you want to hear some great tele playing, check out The Twangbangers: 26 days on the road by High Tone Records. The version of “Hot Rod Lincoln” is a Tele and Fender Twin Reverb combination that will blow our mind.

Hey Cole, I have no topics ;-) but yes I am feeling more like writing expressively than tech stuff, but the spammer rants shall never stop until they are eradicated.

I’m with ya, Gardner and am holding on to that music dream. Let’s find a shop! Have a great trip to Vancouver, you will jam there for sure.

The world needs old dreamers too, and old dreamers need electric guitars. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

Good luck in the quest. Sure wish we could stroll into a music store together and spend a fine afternoon playing all the axes in the shop, bothering the manager, and dreaming of rock and roll.

I’ve enjoyed reading some of your more “off blog topic” posts recently … this post is especially interesting to me b/c I think I know the Kevin you are referring to in a very different way. Some of your more recent posts/photo storytelling has me realizing how important it is to use our spaces to also reflect on other areas of our lives. It is so cool to see you exploring new ground and taking a chance at being more transparent!

Go buy that guitar! Oh, and if you want, I might be able to get the other one back — I know where Kevin lives ;-)
