1956 Gibson J-185

This guitar could very well be "The Bomb" of original J-185's.  It is featured on the back page of the January 2018 Acoustic Guitar Magazine.  You can read about it there!!

The White Dove

Over the years I have played several Doves.  I didn't particularly like any of them.  Very disappointing since I love most other Gibson's I have ever played.  I would dearly love to try this one out, in hopes of finally getting to play a good one!!

Cumberland Christmas Market

Playing one of Gerry's great Xaver guitars at the Cumberland Christmas Market.  This one is a real beauty--but aren't all Xaver Guitars fantastic?

1956 Gibson ES-5 Switchmaster

I wonder what this sold for in 1956?  You don't want to know today's asking price.

000-17 in Black Smoke

I would call this Johnny Cash Black.  I did take advantage of the extra hour's sleep this morning.  And when I awoke the radio was playing Mr. Cash.  Followed by other greats such as Conway, Merle and Willie.  Ya gotta love Sunday morning oldies!!
