I see it don't take much to get some on here a little upset over terms. I love it. Stick to the hertiage of our toys.

My grandson ask him mom if granddaddy's guitar was for old people because it had legs and I couldn't hold it up in front of me.
He will be a Steel player or nothing.

If there is anything that really gets me riled is when people look at the steel guitar and call it a slide guitar.
If that's at the top of your list of peeves, you lead an existence to be widely and avidly coveted.

I was playing a gig back in the seventies, we were in a kind of a band pit , a lady came up and looked , and asked {Quote } what is that as she looked at my PSG, I looked up and replied its an electric ironing board,she looked down and looked at me, looked down again . She looked at her husband they shrugged their shoulders and went back dancing. "Ralph"
