Location: Portland, OR | These are times when you can curse the internet and all that free info.. and hope to run into this guy at a garage sale and maybe give him $200 for this cheap plastic top blue guitar.. and only because blue is your wifes favorite color.. otherwise its probably worthless. It doesn't even have the soundhole in the right place for christ's sake.

god am I old. Al, relax. You are not old. Say that five times and you will start to believe it.
You know that grey matter in your head. Well I think mine is coming out through my hair. Just having a grey moment here. or to put it another way...I think I'm losing my mind. Sorry Al. :) |

(anything is possible) but she plays the Pianny.
(Thought so, so I cheated and did a YouTube search!) |

She plays the piano. I don't think she played guitar, but anything is possible. Maybe her arm inadvertently bumped into the strings once. |
