I've now known John Monteleone for almost a half century. Here's the back story that lead to our first meeting.

Great story, Howard! I'd seen a photo of your "Orthopedic" replacement neck before, but hadn't read the entire background to it.

Thanks for sharing the story Howard...

Great Story. It’s interesting that if one thing changes, your injury doesn’t happen for instance, how it changes the course of someone’s life. In that sense I’m happy you were injured! Wishing you many more years of friendship.

Yes, that’s serendipity for you.

And to think that I figured this stuff out without having to put it up to committee on an Internet guitar forum?

You learn so much more, more quickly, when you make your own mistakes. It makes you pay closer attention to your own actions when there’s nobody else to blame.

Glad you enjoyed my reminiscing!

Best,
Howard

Thanks, Howard.

Funny, I remember that Guild advert. It is still etched in my subconscious—every time I see a Guild Jumbo, I want it.

I understand.
