I was attracted to this guitar because of the unusual wood on the back and sides. It’s curly English Oak. The top is spruce and has a really great patina.
The guitar sounds really good and now plays well. I’m still very amateurish in my guitar restoration work, but learning with each project. Fun!
Just “finished” my latest guitar restoration project (still a bit of cosmetic work to do.) This guitar was probably built by Lyon and Healy circa 1920 for the Samuel Osborne Company, which had a showroom in the Masonic Temple Building in downtown Chicago.
When I got it, it needed crack repair, tuner replacement, neck reset, bridge work and new saddle. 1/2

And yeah, is my youngest son.
And yes, his twin brother was also there singing harmony. 😎💖

Today I have been digitizing old cassette tapes and mixing to clean up the production. This is for a client who wrote a bunch of songs and recorded years ago. Now wants to revive them and shop them around.
Fun to breath new life into these!

I just wanna say…
Bandcamp is holding annual Juneteenth fundraiser today where they donate 100% of their share of sales to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. The LDF has a long history of effectively enacting change through litigation, advocacy, and public education, and they are doing this annually in recognition of the fact that real progress towards racial equity requires a sustained, ongoing commitment.
Today’s announcement by the non profit Lost Apple Project.
Two more lost apples found! 👍🍎😎
"I don't want to be inconvenienced or have to change my lifestyle to fight climate change..."
"We don't want to take any actions that might lower profits, which could reduce our stock dividends or executive bonuses, in order to mitigate climate change.”
"Let future generations deal with it."

Well, the joke is on you, because the future is NOW. #ClimateChange
