Too cool. My 18 would be 19 years before yours. Almost seems like prehistory.

They didn't have cameras when I was 18.

Vaguely remember that age... and yes I did have hair then. Unfortunately the wind was blowing the camera strap around, and got part of my fugly face.



Taken in St. Louis in the late 1960's...

Later that year at Mid-American Raceways (MAR) racetrack West of St. Louis racing 100cc enduro karts.

Strat & a hat. Awesome Do you still have that '65? That's not the 'mongrel', is it? Looks like a clean early '65 (small headstock, transitional logo).

What about that Kramer bass? I bought mine in 1982 and just sold it this year. It helped fund the Porsche. A very nice instrument for moderate $.

Stupid, rainy day here in Maryland.

Strat, hat, and a metal slide. That is an original '65 - only mod was a brass nut. Sadly that guitar is long gone. One of the instruments I wish I'd never sold. The Kramer was my buddy Harry's bass. You can see his Anvil case for it in one of the pics, next to my beat up, only-one-latch-working brown Fender case (darker than tweed, but not black). The metal neck was trippy.

Ahh, youth...
