As a side note, the first good guitar I ever purchased was in 1963 a used Fender Jazzmaster, so it had to be an early one...again this purchase came about from my love for the Ventures...As many of us did in those days, I like to say I learned to play guitar from their records, their music was pretty simple and sounded great...i learned doing the "drop the needle routine"...play a few notes, copy them, drop the needle, learn a few more,,,etc...its all we had in those days to learn from other than an in store teacher, which I learned from also,,,Bill Pruitt. I still have all of those records from that era. Here 60 years later, I am still playing those old Ventures tunes and more that I never got around to learning until the last year or so.
Dang same problem I have with all my pictures, but you get the idea of the guitar...forget about the ugly guy holding it
