For those of you not in the US, today is a feasting holiday that commemorates a tradition in which early European settlers in North America feasted with native Americans, giving thanks to God and the natives for the support that allowed their colony to thrive. Today, we use it above all as a day to give thanks for blessings.
I’m thankful for the gifts of art and music and for the luxury of owning guitars which represent both. I’m also thankful to you all for sharing images of the beautiful instruments you encounter.
Happy Thanksgiving, wherever you are!
PS - that’s a Gretsch G5220 in Jade Gray Metallic upgraded with a roller bridge and a modified Bigsby B7.
