I had my own string changer until he grew up and moved out. I'd buy him new strings for his guitars if he'd change mine at the same time. Now I too have become a procrastinator. As a matter of fact, my 408 is in desperate need of a new set now...

My first guitar was a Washburn acoustic dreadnaught. I don't remember the model right now but it was a basic non-electric, non-cutaway. It actually has very good sound for a starter and I do still have it. My son keeps wanting to take it in fact even though I've already bought him several...

Awesome, I love the color.

This is probably my favorite all time guitar song! Give me chills to listen to it. Thumbs up for this one. One of my all time favorites!!

Forgot about two others I highly recommend people try. Trey Pistoles is awesome. It's been one of my go to favorites for about six years. Another great one I discovered about a year ago. Tank 7 farmhouse ale.

I love beers with flavor. All time favorite = Austiner Edelstoff - I can't buy it in Indiana unfortunately. I learned to love it living in Munich. One of my favorite Wheat beers. Great on a hot day. = Erdinger Weissbier Great winter lager = Paulaner Great US beer on a hot day = Leinenkugel...

My wife and I went to see Blake Shelton Saturday night outdoors near Chicago. On three songs they used a PRS that looked very much like my own guitar. Awesome. I tried to identify exactly what model it was but couldn't. It looked like a Custom or P22 perhaps. It was 22 frets, two...

I visited there 10 years ago when I was lucky enough to spend some time in Europe. When you see the actual location, the remains of the bombed out bunkers, the never ending graves, you start to realize the magnitude of what actually went on there. It's a shame that stuff like that has to happen.

Absolutely beautiful place. I was in the area last summer for a wedding. I love being up in the mountains. Maybe this summer.

Thumbs up on Brothers in Arms. That's the first song that came to mind for me. One of my all time favorites.

Black Gold Wrap / Burst.

Schallers on my PRS

Try listening to Jason Aldean. I doubt you will be depressed. And I second the comment about Paisley's CD Play. I bought it a few years ago and only wish I could play that clean and that fast. I've only been playing about 15 years so mabe in another 15 I'll get there.

I try to be careful with mine but they have developed character over time. The worst one was setting up at church and my strat fell over into my Taylor. I have a rather deep depression about three inches from the soundhole. It stings less now that the damage is over a year old but it still...

My youngest son is an avid player. He has also become a decent songwriter. Unfortunately he never wanted to spend much time playing anything with me. I did get him to perform "Wish You Were Here" with me live at a small gig once. I have it recorded on video. That was awesome.
