Two More Gone

Post by Jack Shults »

My brother died on Wednesday, and my brother-in-law died Thursday morning. Both were musicians, and we had played music together since the '50s. They will be missed.

We couldn't be with either family because of my wife's failing health.

Jack, I'm deeply sorry for your situation. I share your experience with an ailing wife when my brother passed. Being a caretaker is a tough job. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

MSA Millennium, Legend, and Studio Pro, Reese's restored Universal Direction guitar, as well as some older MSAs, several amps, new and old, and a Kemper Powerhead that I am really liking. Recently added a Zum D10, a Mullen RP, and a restored blue Rose, named the "Blue Bird" to the herd. Also, I have acquired and restored the plexiglass D10 MSA Classic again that was built as a demo in the early '70s. I also added a '74 lacquer P/P, with wood necks.
