New Guitar Day!!!



Well, my new Fender Road Worn 50'sTelecaster arrived today! Nothing like coming home after a good hard day at the office to see my beautiful wife and our gorgeous little yellow Lab. To make it even better if that was possible...a nice box with Fender on the outside! so I get this little beauty out of the packaging and then have to set her in the stand to acclimate. Once everything was ready...and believe me that 3 hour wait was tough..LOL I tuned her up and plugged in to one of my Fender amps. All I can say is amazing!! The Tex-Mex pickups are really fantastic. I put her through her paces and she is one amazing guitar. Since we are being posted to Canada for the next 3 years and this is a dream assignment and a dream guitar she is being named Kingston! I just want to thank my amazing wife A, for supporting me in everything I do and inspiring me to play music and write/record again. You are my inspiration and my whole world! Hope everyone has a great night!

Another Tele Coming soon!!

Hey, after all my blog is about Telecasters so what do you expect?? My gorgeous wife once again is spoiling me with another Tele. This time the new addition is a 50s Road Worn Tele in 2 tone sunburst. I am really excited because this one has the vintage appointments and the Tex-Mex pickups! I will be honest, I used to be against relicing a new guitar, but now after having had the chance to play a couple I get it. The broken in feel is really nice and then there is the added bonus of not worrying about any nicks or dings because it already has them. So shortly the new addition will be here.  I do want to Thank my awesome wife A, because she spoils me when it comes to everything and I am a really lucky man to be married to her because of who she is! I love you A! I will take some pictures and post them! Until then...here is one for you!

Headed to the Great White North!!

Well, after 25 years in the Army somewhere, somehow I have managed to make someone confident enough in my abilities and I have been given the honor of being an Army Exchange Officer to the Canadian Army. I am  excited because not only are we given this wonderful opportunity, we will be able to build our dream home and the  home of Indian River Studios will be built! I am still so grateful to my amazing wife A, because she has been so supportive of my profession and never has complained with some of the less than desirable  postings we have had. This, in my opinion is a huge reward for her because now she will finally be able to have her own home not an apartment like she has lived(she is after all from NYC :) ) There will be many pictures posted and when the studio is open a ton of great music coming from it! have a great weekend all!
