I looked them up. They were 16, 16, and 19 when they released their first record in 2020. Only one of them is allowed in a bar even now. Amazing.

Their parents raised them on 90’s and 00’s alt and indie from what the music sounds like. Very cool. Touring with SSPU will be like touring with their parents. Only a lot more fun.

Circa 1970 Silvertone that I got for Christmas when I was twelve.

So about 51 years.

Back at ya. Best estimate based on serial number and Internet info, 1968 National and 2021 VP. 53 years.

He is a hell of a guitar player. He does Epi and Gibson proud.

Indeed.

I bet it is.

He won't reply for a bit. He's at the bank right now.

No. But I’ll be talking to my friend Jonathan at SW once a release date is available and get in the cue. The goal will be to have him find me a +or- 8 1/2 pounder.

Guess I'll have to take a picture of the EB-2 (1968ish but not entirely certain) and the 2015 Thunderbird. That's 47 years. The oldest musical item I have is a 1949 Gibson BR-9 amp, so that's 19 years and 66 years. It would fit in the family portrait. For now, the 2015 Thunderbird is the newest.

That sounds about right. I think that model was available from around ‘68 to ‘72. Some have a different style pickup selector switch. Otherwise they’re all the same except for the name on the headstock.

Or no name on the HS

Sure is.

Jeff and Mike ought pool their talent and form a business.

Upon further reflection that's probably not a good idea.
