Mr. Clapton,
My son has a Gibson Les Paul Studio (his first guitar), a Parker Fly
Guitar (can sound like both a solid body electric or acoustic) and a
Fender American Deluxe "Fat Strat" Stratocaster. *From memory he picked
the Fat Strat because it was not quite as bright as the Clapton model,
but it does have a really nice bluesy sound. *When he went off to school
and could only hand carry one guitar on the plane, he took the Fat
Strat. *Strats are just one hell of a guitar.


One of my kids expressed interest in playing the guitar, so I bought
him a pretty but cheap electric. *Synsonics Pro Series.
The kind guys get shipped in from China and sell from their garage,
which is where I picked it up. *Plain cardboard box that said "Don't
stack more than 20 high," *"Made in China." *About 100 bucks.
He loved it for a couple weeks, then decided he liked air guitar
better. *Pretty much as I figured.
Back in about '80 I bought a cherry Gibson J45 Sunburst in a hard
case. *1964 model I think. *Paid 175 for it. *The guy had bought it
new, plucked it few times, then put it in a closet.
Think I learned 2 cords or whatever you call them, then put it my
closet. *Another son has that one and can actually play it some.
Pretty geetar.

I've never had an electric guitar, just acoustic guitars.


I have a stapler on my desk.- Hide quoted text -

Well, wouldn't you know it, Harry is a guitar virtuoso along with all
of his other refined and cultured passtimes.


I think of him more as being an organ grinder's monkey... but the best
one that ever lived.- Hide quoted text -

Hell yes! You just KNOW he's the best! He's so cultured and refined!
FAR more sophisticated than those other monkeys!
