'Strang,
Very interesting and touching post. Thank you! Interesting that your friend Tony Verstraete was a choir director at Penn State -- no small accomplishment.
I encouraged my now-33-year-old son to go that direction, but things sort of conspired against him. He now works with me as an engineer but he is getting to direct a choir at the local community choir. He turns out to be very good at it, as I suspected he would be.
By the way, I, too, enjoy the 12-string and have a '72 Guild F212 that I bought used when my son was only about a month old. Amazing connection to Pete Seeger...
Regards, Glenn
