Cloyce "Speedy" Griffin....Anyone know him??? Qu

Post by David Wright »

Hi
Does any one know him??? I got letter and pictures from him, " Thanks to b0b" He has a Quad 4 Wright, he bought NEW, 558,59,60, he can't remember for sure, and still playing it at 80!!, I just wonder who carries it for him :whoa: My Dad didn't build a lot of quad guitars, so finding this one is kind of nice, Looks to be in great shape, Cloyce tells me in his letter Alvino Rey got him to fall in Love with the Steel Guitar..... Cloyce has no computer, but did join the Forum, her Daughter will help him with hers.. Just sharing some Steel History with ya... :idea: :idea: :idea:

I had admired his playing 30 years ago.

I got to see him and play with him about a month ago.

He had to put all 32 strings on his
Wright to play that day.

He can still play the the best of them.

I was great seeing him again.
