Where did he get those two wigs?? (No offense Bob, I have a racing hairline, myself!

I've seen the B&W photo before of 19 yo BT looking at a guitar in construction. But the surfer/hippy picture on the living room floor with a 12-string! That's a classic!

Ah, hair...I remember it well. But it's been said that God made just a few perfect heads and covered up the rest with hair. I kinda like that.

I haven't looked at the timeline yet, but I'm guessing that first picture is of Bob's first guitar. It looks like a 12-string Big Baby.

In that first picture, Bob T looks like Brian and Dennis Wilson's long lost bookworm cousin from Dubuque! Haha! Is it possible one of Bob T's early musical influences was the Beach Boys?

Certainly one of Bob's early FASHION influences! That striped shirt was a BB staple!

San Diego in the 70s. It was a time of woodies, long boards, over the line tournaments, surfer music, the Military-Industrial Complex and budding luthiers.
