Tim and I really appreciate Zeek adding some great guitar track to this. THANKS ZEEK! http://www.soundclick.com/player/single_player.cfm?songid=11998760&q=hiThis is a song a friend of mine, Tim Tovar, wrote. It is based on a friend of his (Howard) that bought a Fender guitar when he was 27 for about $300. He made $150.00 per month back then so it was VERY expensive. It's a 1958 Fender with a 3 tone starburst and a maple inlay neck. He has kept the guitar and the original amp that came with it and is very rare too. My understanding is that the guitar was worth $60,000.00 at one time. With the economy it's probably come down just a bit. The picture on the soundclick link is Howard when he was younger and that IS the guitar he is playing. He is in his 80's today. Tim came over and played the song and also sang the lead vocals. It was so good that I just had to put a full production to it. I had another friend, Beau Batts, lay down the bass track and I did the rest. Hope you enjoy! http://www.soundclick.com/player/single_player.cfm?songid=11932159&q=hiTHIS GUITAR STILL KNOWS A MELODY OR TWO STILL FINDS THE HARMONY WHEN I AM BLUE CAN MAKE ME CRY THIS GUITAR REMEMBERS BACK WHEN I WAS YOUNG WINE AND SONG AND TOO MUCH FUN NEVER ASKING WHY THIS GUITAR HELPED ME THROUGH THE DARK OF NIGHT TILL THE PROMISED MORNING LIGHT AND THE FIRST SPRING RAIN THIS GUITAR FAITHFULLY JUST CLOSED HER EYES KEPT PERFECT TIME AS LIFE ROLLED BY HELPED MY EASE MY PAIN CHORUS THIS GUITAR HAS THE SHOULDERS OF A LONG LOST FRIEND SEE'S MY TEARS AND HELPS ME SMILE AGAIN SAYS I'M NOT ALONE THIS GUITAR LIKE A LOVER ON A STORMY NIGHT WHISPERS EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT BABY COME ON HOME THIS GUITAR IS NOT THE SAME AS IT WAS NEW IT'S SOUND IS CLEAR AND IT'S VOICE IS TRUE I KNEW IT FROM THE START THIS GUITAR TAKES ME BACK TO A TIME OF EASE BACK TO THE MUSIC OF MY MEMORIES THE MUSIC OF MY HEART CHORUS
