Lightbulb More on Pics I found (of me)



I got this pic today from an old friend thru Facebook that used to work for me as a Rep back in the early 1980s. He (Gil Griffith) also worked for Sun (Amplifiers) back then so that's the Amp we had in the booth then. This was from a NAMM show. Yes, I was once young an handsome. No photo shopping here.. lol

I started another Thread of Pics I found with me playing the DB but this pic here needs its own page.

Lightbulb and 2 more..



That's Gil on the left who posted these Pics, my first ever sales Rep from the early '80's. I did a Guitar show in NY last year and who do I run into like it was yesterday, the same guy. Gil Griffith..

That as the Twin to Anthony Jackson's first 6 we made for him. I made 2 necks and completed the 2nd bass sometime after the first. That Bass went to Bill Dickens.
