I was just watching Ryan Adam's BBC4 Concert on YouTube and having a pedal steel player in the band adds something really special. Last edited by Steel and wood; 05-20-2020 at 01:28 PM. |

Got ya. I have an old Framus 6 string acoustic made in Bavaria (Germany), probably in the 60s. It's the first guitar I learned on in the 80s and even then it was hard on the fingers. I still have that guitar that my uncle gave to our family around 1980. He probably picked it up while stationed in Germany in the air force.

I keep an old Alvarez that was my first "nice" guitar on the wall in the den. I play it about once a month. It was a Christmas present from my parents when I was 15 or 16. Being a hoarder, I still have all of the decent and not so decent guitars, minus one mexican strat, that I have owned. A couple of beater electrics here or there gone, but why get rid of something that you have had for 30+ years?

Over this COvid break I have gone into my closet and resurrected my first nice acoustic,My dad bought for me when I was a kid. Guild D25. Haven't played it since around 1990. Dad borrowed it for a few years. I got it back as he was building his collection. But it's just been sitting and bellying. So I dug it out and gave it some love. Will never replace my #1 but this thing sounds and plays very good.

Other than that, no, no guitars have been given to me so no second stringers here.

Like many of us, we traded off or sold our first guitars for something better, not realizing the value of those instruments to our timeline and how they inspired what came after.
For me, it was an early 70's Gibson ES-335, a 1975 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe, and a Suzuki dreadnought. |

Anything “real” Gibson was so beyond my reach then. You were a lucky kid to have starters like that. What could you have traded up to by selling these off?
