Look who stopped in the other day but none other than our old pal KENNY OLSON!!  Kenny played with Kid Rock for the first 12 years and has been very sucessful since he left KID 13 years ago recording and performing all over the WORLD!  He claims I sold him his first guitar when he was just 13.  We LOVE Kenny!!

 John Iden of the 60's group the "yardbirds" playin' and diggin' the 68 National acoustic

Had a very nice visit from my old friend John Idan of the 'Yardbirds' at our store. He strolled on in from England for a couple of hours we just had a BLAST!! Talked about old times, he was coming up with some memories from the mid-70's I sure as hell forgot about. We used to jam a lot back then. He was my neighbor, I was playin' bars 6 nights a week and he was just a kid. A very talented kid obviously and I have been very happy for him since he moved to England 30 years ago or so eventually hooking up with the Yardbirds.


Here we have a 1 owner all ORIGINAL early 1963 Fender P bass with case candy!

GIBSON SG

Yes, I have a soft spot in my heart for accordions. My Dad raised us 6 Sicilan kids on the instrument & I had 10 years of classical training from him, a true professional career musician, gigging until he was 86, and receiving a 70 YEAR PLAQUE from Detroit Local 5 Musicians Union. My STRONG passion is Vintage Guitars, Stringed Instruments, & Amps, but yes, I have a weakness.
