THE ONES THAT GOT AWAY
In 2008, I started a blog on the “Blogger” format, and wrote about the guitars that I had owned in the past that I no longer owned. Every guitarist has that one story of the “one that got away.” The one they want back. So I started documenting the stories of the guitars and amps and even pedals that I had owned and somehow parted ways with. Some of the stories are pretty crazy. Some sad. Some just kind of weird, and some just stories about buying a guitar and selling it for a profit. There are tons of different guitars and amps and other musical instruments covered on the blog and it gets a lot of hits to this day. So…I’m moving those stories over here to this site, one by one before Blogger goes away for good. Stay tuned and enjoy the stories. Here they are…
