Truthfully, that does remind me that my brother (not THAT brother) and I started playing on a $25 sears & roebuck guitar that our father gave us for Christmas.

The obvious answer is...chewing tobacco... ....and it would be a "reverse burst".

Yes it was, Hesh. And it was hard as heck to play, bad action. But my middle brother and I both learned to play on that thing. It was probably around 1962-63. Ron

Ron and Hesh, my first was the equivalent Montgomery Wards Airline model with a metal tailpiece and moveable bridge (can we say great for intonation with kids who don't know any better). It was so bad I actually strung it up for years with nylon strings until I could get a better guitar.
Hesh, Alverez has been around a long time and were played and endorsed by Jerry Garcia and Bob Weir. I still have a cheap model and a Yairi (newer model direct coupled bridge) stashed around the house. |

Until I built my first, Alvarez has been the only guitar I've played for the past 35 years. It's a really nice Yairi made of BRW. Ron |
