I was downtown Warsaw, IN today and a street bum called me over to a dark alley with a discreet, "pssssst, hey buddy!". He pulled this guitar out from under his coat. I barely noticed that he was naked under the coat. He sold it to me for fifteen cents. He said "fitteen sint", but I understood what he meant. I got it home and washed it off and photographed it to show you all...  |

Protest too much, Cribbs. That must be the new wallpaper for your house.  |

It's not purple. That's just a trick of lighting. It's pink.
And it's not sissified. It's a manly pink. My wife said so.

First of all, John, I was not naked. I had on socks. Secondly, I clearly said, "Fitty cents" and because your hearing is going, you gave me a dime and a Canadian nickel. Thirdly, if you want the case, it will be an extra half a rock.

Would that be a Geib case? I wouldn't pay more for less.

If a Geib case is made of cardboard and flannel, then, yes, it is a Geib.

I realize y'all are just joshin' and all that, but I went to the guitar website and those are some really pretty guitars. Do they sound as good as they look?

Wait a minute...
Did you buy the guitar or not?
I was burned once today, and I'm getting a little suspicious.

He's a potter. I doubt he actually had the 15 cents.

He can't be that broke if he can afford to wallpaper his floors too.

Johnne, yes. He makes the finest archtops in the world. Ted Megas would beg to differ.  Mike PS man, I soooooo wish I was a hot shite jazz player. Then I could tell 'Nita that I need a good jazz box. |

Makes me want to drag out the Eastman and tickle its strings for a while.
