Here are my notes on it from my bird processor: 2125 North Villas Lane 6/29/1993 June 29, 1993 Tuesday I called Jeff today. He is going to have a job interview in Mexico City. I called Dad. He went to see Becky Hildebranth and    got some sleeping pills. Hotter than hell here in Arizona. Hotter than hell. Hey, I bought a new guitar on Saturday. It's an Ibanez acoustic with a flame maple finish. A dark colored guitar.

RIGHT: STEVE'S AND MY GUITAR STRAP(S) FROM THE 1960s band the Good Earth.          
    

  left of the red bass against the wall, my Yamaha 12-STRING. Dumb instrument. I'm in Mexico on the couch playing it. You see my fake FENDER STRAT. It had great sound, though. decen pickups.
THE Korean Casino was a piece of garbage. I sold it with rebuilt pickups to some guy in Norway. He got a good deal because it had super pickups by then and a nice case.
The Maple Maurader, that dark thing had iffy action and iffy sound.

Wild West Sweethearts kind of sexist guitar.    AND THE SEÑORITA, ABOVE, WHICH YOU REALLY HAVE TO BEAT THE SOUND OUT OF.  HEAR ME PLAY IT HERE!

Here are three guitars and a Uke. The first is my 1300-buck Yairi which I can hardly lift anymore and I can't get my gimpy arm around it, so I don't play it. In the Middle is my Grand Symphony Mini Taylor which is a surprisingly loud guitar for its size and costs about 300 bucks more than the cheapo sunburst parlor which is a little bigger but still
small enough. They are all ready to plug in! And the Fender Parlor I'm going to sell because I want the pick-up.
 

Dig the little teeny weeny Fender sunburst parlor guitar I bought. On the right. I had a credit so it cost me practically nothing. As you can plainly see, it's a parlor guitar with 14 frets instead of twelve. See the $165 LR Baggs M1 pickup I stuck in the sound hole? This partnership makes for one bad little guitar. I'm going to play it at gigs plugged into my sound system. It will crunch and rumble and ring. Its cheap laminated (plywood) top (not found on more expensive guitars) gives it a crispy crackle and a most decidedly affordable list price. Its small size makes it easy to pick up and play.

This guitar has a special laminated top not found on more expensive instruments!!

 

LAKE ITASCA 1964,5,6,7??        GOODEARTH BAND 1968? That's a Sears Silvertone I'm playing. Steve's
playing a mystery brand bass. Boyer's got a Farfisa (sp) organ and Pete is playing Rogers drumbs. I have the
high-priced family movie screen mike stand!

THE FABULOUS SONICS
Playing in Payson, Arizona.
In the picture, Steve has a PF 10 Ibañez that has pretty darn good sound compared to my violin-colored PF20.
   

              Steve's Ovation Guitar tag.
 He bought that guitar for me but I was too shy then to play it.
That Ibañez Steve bought is a great guitar. Its sound is excellent--better than my violin finish one I bought in 1993. Look below.
