Tell us more about yourself (place a Bio here if you wish)
If that picture shows up, I am the guy in the hat talking to the bartender. I played some gigs in Jefferson county mo in 1962, some in vietnam and cambodia in 1970, some in in 1977 when Bob Minner (he was a bit shy) stepped to the front of my 6th grade classroom and played his banjo, (I have a Joe Prichard Gibraltar album still selling somewhere--they charged me 18 dollars for the cd from 1074, I played piano for Chuck Berry late in the 80's when johnny Johnson was not available, and with a lot of female vocalists until they figured out how to make money without my help. I still do 5 or 6 nights a week around festus---48 years, I have never stopped, it is still fun---but I count following the success of Bob as a genuine thrill among all the things I associate with music or teaching. People around here are very proud of Bob--his name comes up a few unpredictable times.

Maybe i will learn to play guitar before it is too late.

Very interesting bio, Joe. Sounds like Bob is as fond of you as you are of him. Welcome to the site. Anyone who who can lay claim to having Bob play the banjo in front of the 6th grade class is ok in my book.

Joe! I have thought of you often. Your piano and sax in class had a huge influence on me musically. So very good to hear from you. Hunt me up on Facebook as well. I'd love to hook up again after all these years and bring you out to a Tim McGraw show (I play for him). Please keep in touch.

Steve, my office is across the street from Dusty Strings in Seattle and it turns out they have a D18GE in stock. I had not even noticed it but picked it up. The neck takes some getting used to (or probably for me the bigger adjustment is tied to a 1…

So what you are talking about here Jon, is not what I started the thread for( but it IS a nice aside!) You NEED to know what your humidity is at in your house were your axe lives. That is what the Hygrometer is for. There are all kinds of threads ev…

I've never had a gauge that I've used for any of my guitars, but what I have done which only costs a few dollars is to get a travel soap box and a sponge to use as a small humidifier that I keep in my case. It's works really well and fits perfectly…
