I recieved an electric guitar for Christmas in 1967, a japanese torture device of no known origin from a local department store. Thank you Santa. The string action was so high and painful, I put it down for 3 years! Finally after getting a Fender Telecaster Deluxe from Lou Rose Music in Edison, NJ, I could play along with the Rolling Stones records my sister bequeethed to me. Now I was getting somewhere. Through the years I've aquired over 60 fabulous guitars, each with its' own story and history. I've been very lucky to have some wonderful guitars built especially for me by; Gibson, Fender, ESP, Rickenbacker and Rick Turner. Thank you all very much.
