Things You Don't See Anymore Part 2

Thats very cool Joe, thanks for sharing. I've seen that 4 pickup greenburst guitar around a few times. Are you still looking to get one?

If one appeared at the right price I might consider it. Might heal that childhood longing which I actually believe was the cause of my adult gas. I can buy what I want now, without having to cry and beg for it - so I do. :)

Well, at least not in late-model cars.
 
A collage of early gear I played through, the first guitar (upper left) was a Harmony Bobkat, next was a Univox Coily (ES-335 style) and Univox U65G amp, plus Micro Fazer. The Westinghouse reel-to-reel deck was my first amp, had detachable speakers, all tube and had the most badass overdrive sound.

I quit smoking a while back, so I don't know... but I'm wondering if some of these still exist:

And does anyone remember a peppermint cigarette that was advertised in the mid to late seventies? They were only around for a short while. Can't remember the name, but I can still unfortunately taste them when I think about them, and I remember the smell. They were horrible, and very short lived.
