Happy Mother’s Day dear Homeskoolers …hope you enjoy this trip through Fender’s offset line-up in the 60’s…when surf was king and when droves of perfectly healthy young American boys were being shipped off to strange foreign lands to fight a war that no one understood.
And totally unrelated….if you haven’t seen the movie “The Sound Of Metal” yet on Amazon worldwide streaming…do yourself a favor

A lot of these very same new viewers don't seem to know that Uncle Larry made a couple records that they could potentially listen to...one is an instrumental solo record called "Plexi Soul" that is available here:
https://tombukovac.bandcamp.com/album/plexi-soul
another is an instrumental collaboration with his dear friend Dean Deleo (originally from the Stone Temple Pilots organization) that is available here:
https://tripthewitch.bandcamp.com/album/trip-the-witch
and a LOT of people don't seem to know that they can go here to purchase a myriad of Homeskoolin' related merchandise..including several different T-shirts and some beautifully constructed coffee mugs for those afflicted with thin lips...
