I've had my last remaining guitar, a 1968 Gibson Hummingbird, in the closet for a few years now. I've been thinking of getting back to it. Maybe my grandkids will get a kick out of papa playing for them. I don't look forward to playing with barely any finger tip calluses though. They are mostly gone now, friends since 1964 when I got my first guitar at 14.

Gonna be a nice day in Central NY today. Have a peaceful and safe Sunday, my porch friends.

Definitely get your guitar out and play for your grandkids Gary. I play for my three and the youngest who will be 1 year old next week likes it the best. :D
Jeff, I can only echo what has been said by everyone else and I'm sorry this happened to your son. May God bless you.

Amir Fleschwund Amir Fleschwund -- I was moved by your remembrance the other day, but was reluctant to say anything due the inherent sadness of the matter. I volunteer to teach veterans through my University, through the Warrior-Scholar Project. In the course of doing so (going on four years now), I've heard many stories of great humor, intensity, injury, and heartbreaking loss. I'm truly sorry for yours. --Tony

Your Chickadee in flight is just an amazing photo, Dan! Award winning, I think.

Jeff, My condolences on your loss. The worst thing that can happen to a parent, in my estimation. I don't pretend to know what you and your family have been through. I did lose a granddaughter some years ago though, so maybe I can relate a little. All I know is I thank God everyday that my children and remaining grandchildren are healthy and safe.
That's a wonderful name for your guitar. Play it happily, please.

I’m sorry about your granddaughter, Gary. Yes, you can relate.
But I am at peace with it, and like you, thankful for what we have, and full of good memories.

I really respect anyone volunteering to help veterans, Aias!

Hey definitely get out that Hummingbird, Gary. An old Gibson acoustic needs to be played. I have a ‘55 J45 that probably has a slightly different voice than your ‘Bird, even as they both sound like Gibsons.
I’ll be accompanying a couple of vocalists at my niece’s wedding in June, but will have to use an electric acoustic so I can go through the PA. I believe that girl has invited over 350 of her closest friends.:D

Thanks. I missed these initially and then a dealer had a few extras but at a higher price and I jumped on it. While I was waiting for it to arrive I definitely had some buyers remorse. Once I opened it however, that all went away. This is easily my favorite GEC.
