btw, speakin' o' tenor guitars.... i was down in fredricksburg, va. lass month an' stopped into picker's supply an' the owner, bran dillard, who loves messin' wid me went to his office a brought out a 1932 national tricone plectum-- tenor-- with the lilly of the valley motiff etched on the face........... drool......... he let me play it and i swear, that was the funnest guitar i've run into like, ahhhh, forever... i offered to trade him all my guitars, including my '64 d-18 martin, the gibson tenor, the reagal and half a dozen miscellanious beaters fir it.... he told me that they would serve as a down payment on the national and that he would send a thick payment book to me in the mail.......... now that's mean, mean, mean... he's always nessin' wid my poor head.......
