New Guitar

A couple of months ago, Marg and I went to San Antonio to visit some dear friends. One of them gave me this guitar, which she used to play in Rock & Roll bands back in the 60s and 70s. Check out its majesty.

Turns out this is a pretty unusual instrument; Kustom only sold guitars for a couple of years starting in 1968. I haven't been able to find out for sure, but I like to think this one was made the following year, maybe in late May.

This wild-looking guy has a beautiful, smooth jazzy tone, but Jody says it will explode if anything but R&R is played on it. So, as long as I have it this guitar will do nothing but rawk. There's a fairly comprehensive fan page online about the Kustom K200, which has a lot of interesting info.
