Gettin' the band back together

I wasn't fat! I had hair! The Rickenbacker wasn't trashed yet!(I still have it and want to renovate it - all I need is "keywinds" as they call the tuning machines, in. Rick-o-Land.

With the scratches and the hole in the middle and the fading this looks like a photo from 1870

So I'd say you're very sprightly. Hair or no.

I just back in front of a crowd with the ol' guitar for the first time in almost 20 years last week. It was a little shaky but felt great! Looking forward to making it a more regular thing again.

@WikiAdam awesome!

The guy who sent me these also sent AI-cleaned up versions later, but this will do.

There is a groove worn in the wood from where my thumb rested on the neck pickup - I have never done that to any other instrument.

@thelonius what did this picture sound like?
