That’s right, the GOOD DOCTOR is in!Even-Steven

…and I thought I was busy. Steve Soest is playing gigs all over Southern Californiafixing EVERYBODY’S GUITARS, living life large, and he still has time for us here at Jackaboutguitars.com  What a great guy!

 

                                                              Woops! Two Steve’s…

I’ll have to send him out one of these new extremely way cool Jackaboutguitars.com tee shirts when they become available in the very near future!  They’ll look something like this:

Jag Shirt240-3This is only a mock up.  Of course the real shirts will look way much cooler than anyone can even begin to imagine or anticipate!!!

Prices aren’t set in stone yet but the way it’s looking I’m guessing they’ll probably be somewhere around $25 which will include shipping within the continental U.S. and for any of you other readers in the other 102 countries where we have been seen, we’ll have to calculate that extra shipping cost (sorry  Paul M., Eric C., Jeff B., Jimmy P., Peter F., and Pete T.)

As we get this all figured out (depending on demand and feedback –  please drop us a line at [email protected] and if there’s enough response, we’ll probably put up an order form in the right hand column to make it easy to get one of these cool tee-shirts that boast a logo design by the same artist who designed the famous AC/DC logo, my talented brother, Gerry Huerta.

PETER FRAMPTON’S LES PAUL Returned After 32 Years

What a GREAT story.  If you have ever lost a guitar or had one stolen, this story is for you.

 

Peter Frampton’s Les Paul returned after 32 years.  Who can even believe this!  Peter Frampton’s 1954 black Les Paul Custom which was given to him by a fan named Mark Mariana at a Humble Pie gig back in 1970, and made famous during his solo days, has been returned by two of his fans who tracked it down after some serious investigating. It went missing and was presumed lost after a 1980 cargo plane crash.  See the story here:

After seeing this story a little bit of hope has been rekindled within me.  It was 1985, and although it wasn’t anything as cool as a 1954 Les Paul
