Re: GL's guitar's
I used to have an old 1960 Goya back in the Folk era 60's. It was a F19 model which one of the guys in Peter Paul and Mary played. It was made so you could use either steel strings or nylons. Had wonderful sound. I had it in the Army in 64-67 and it used to put guys to sleep when I played it. It got stolen when they broke into my car in Houston,Texas in 1969 along with a Teardrop Vox electric guitar. That really hurt. I now have a 1969 Martin D-28. and a Martinez nylon string, a 1988 Gibson Les Paul Studio, a Gibson Avenger from 1982 I think, a Gibson ES 225, and a Ovation Balladeer from some time back in the 70's, and a privately made Telecaster using Fender pickups and gold trim with some nice body parts that I am not sure who made them, I bought it cheap from a guy who used to own a music store and built it for himself, plays nice and sounds nice. Most just sit in cases and I hardly ever play anything any more, the only 2 which are strung is the nylon Martinez and the Telecaster copy. Just have basicly lost interest. Never was that much of a player any way. I remember when Gordon and Terry got those expensive guitars, as I had asked Terry about them when I seen it up close. They looked pretty much like a Martin if I remember them right. They did sound excellent though.
