"Since your questions were similar to a recent post of mine, I decided to do a little more research. On Utube, I found a video, "Taylor GS Mini + ES-go pickup, a 3-part demo". I thought it was pretty good and answered my questions. Hope it…"

FloridaGull replied to Lou's discussion GS Mini vs. RP1-327 in the group Small Body Guitars
"The RP1-327 is all-solid wood, for one thing - a 12 fret guitar with a slot head - AAA adirondack spruce over rosewood - a totally different esthetic than the Taylor GS Mini, which is essentially a slightly shrunken Grand Auditorium. The Taylor is a…"

Lou,

 

You asked if I knew or ever heard of the Chapin brothers. Yes I have, Harry, Tom and I believe one was named Steve??.There are several Chapins.  Like Jim Croce, Harry was taken from us, way too early. Harry was a master story teller, and I miss him dearly; it was an awful loss. You can't mention Harry's name without seeing smiles grow on knowing faces.

 

I see by your photos that you play banjo some. Great instrument. You look very at home with your banjo.

 

Be well Lou.

Binghamton, NY is home. I was stationed @ Plattsburgh AFB in the 1970's for two years. You guys have some serious winter up there.

Heartbreaking. It really does upset me to think of how how that must have felt at the time, and you are clearly still deeply pained at his loss. I can see he was a fine chap, a great companion. His hearing was a great deal sharper than yours or mine! He clearly had great musical taste and was lucky to be with the owner he had. Sorry to sound insensitive but would you consider another dog? If so a recommendation. I'm obviously biased but Irish Terriers also make fine 'blues hounds'. If you do it you will (eventually) thank me :-)
