Before COVID, I borrowed my brother's Epi 12-string to try out sometunes. I'm sure we both thought it'd be a couple of weeks, but it has been considerably longer. Now that we are both fully vaccinated, I suppose I'll be able to give it back, so I better record someof the tunes I've been playing.

-1962 Martin D-21
-1950 Gibson LG1
-1958 Goya M-26
-1974 Yamaha FG75 high strung
-A number of banjos, mandolins, Autoharps, ukuleles, dulcimers, mouth harps, a Tele clone and various other stuff.
-I own a fiddle, but only play it when Maggie and the cats are all out of the house.
