After checking with the radar tower it seems as though 5 guitar geek items have popped up, but no worries it’s all smooth flying from here.

BobP from Alexandria VA
Retired at 61 and decided to look into picking up a used guitar and got fascinated by the used guitar market and history of acoustic guitar manufacture. #smallwin. I acquired a vintage Martin style 34 built in 1899 at an auction. Actually I think that’s a big win. #guitarsenal I acquired 5 guitars at the auction including a 1969 Martin D12-35 and a 1974 Martin N-10
Thanks for a greatly entertaining and informative show.
WHERE IS eli????)
* great win I am start to get my retheme going and my speed on a couple of flatpicking to 120. have a long way to go. I pick up a Metronome called “Qwik Timer” works great and ease, and don’t run down my phone battery. cost me $20.
Has Tony every played an Alvarez Yairi, or master, if so is Martin a better guitar. I need to save up for a more playable guitar some day.
Don’t know about Tony but I had a Yairi Alvarez that I sadly sold to get my J-45. Wish I could have kept it, cedar top with hog back and sides it was fabulous. My Gibson is also fabulous so one in one out keeps the wife happy.
Hey guys love your show you inspire an old dog to keep trying. For years I have been lugging around a heavy old school Peavey PA and speakers and all the stuff that goes with it to 20 0r 30 small shows a year in our area. Last week my wife and I stopped in to our local music store Music Villa. And Boom!! My small win was when we left with a Bose L1 and a Tech 21 Acoustic Stic Fly Rig. Thanks and PS I’m a Elijah Craig fan.
