Why I'm Here

1971 Guild D125. The paper with the id long ago blew out of the sound hole. I bought it new for $200. It replaced my first guitar which was really cheap. That Harmony had a 2 inch distance from string to fretboard (well, maybe not quite that far. But it did feel like it). The Guild has the requisite belt buckle scratches from those days and twice has needed more work to repair cracks, new tuning pegs, re glue this and that. With new strings, it still sounds pretty fair.

City

I've always wanted to sing and play again. Now is the time.
