Cool Guitars







I have a thing for guitars, especially cool old guitars. Personally, I have a 1962 Fender Custom Esquire, which is a deluxe telecaster. I also have a 1960's vintage Harmony semi-acoustic, the "Roy Smeck" model. Roy was an old time guitar and banjo player, popular in the 1920's to 50's. It is fire engine red, with white fingerboard, and looks like an old Gibson semi-acoustic. Plays really well, I also have a 1960's era Gibson acoustic, folk model popular with college students at that time, and a 1970's era Ibanez acoustic, that is just a nice old guitar. Full size, with great sound. I am always on the lookout at yard sales for similar treasures. Here are a few pictures of good old guitars, none of them mine:
