Not much to say about this guitar . . . it's proven to be a real workhorse.
It spent some of its first years hanging on the wall behind the stage in our SOO'S Restaurant Showhall.
We reserved this electric-acoustic for visiting musicians to use during our Saturday Night Jam Sessions.
Since most guitarists/singers brought their own instruments,
this guitar was only occasionally pressed into service.

When I was recruited by Brandon University to teach in the Faculty Eduation
as Assistant Professor I moved this guitar into my BU office.
It proved to be a useful tool for putting variety into my classes . . .
as well as for a few after-class jams with students.

When I retired from University after a 40-year career as an educator,
the guitar was passed on to my grandson, Soulin,
who showed an interest in learning the instrument.
