Notes
I just wanted to try doing one of these “harsh truth” clickbait titles that everyone is doing now, just to see if this video would get a zillion views…the harsh truth is that it probably won’t.
the ACTUAL truth is that i'm just checkin' in to show you guys the INCREDIBLE restoration work that dear Greg Voros did on my trusty old '59 Ricky Capri 360, and also show you one of the amazing acoustic guitars that James Burkett in Dothan Alabama builds for way too cheap....whilst concluding with a quick but effective tour of the recently added "Duesenberg Wing" at Gruhn Guitars in Nashville TN.
Co-starring, Cory Terrell, Emmett Rozelle and young Marshall Bukovac.
stay tuned and stick around if you happen to be into bad ass old golden era Gibson and Fender guitars my friends...ol' Uncle Larry's got some top shelf freshly hornswaggled grade A 100 % wood pussy to show y'all real soon....i got a feelin' you're gonna like it

Uncle Larry gettin' all microtonal and shit.....
If anyone wants to call James Burkett and order one of his re-everythinged old Harmony Sovereigns here is his number...(334) 797-6388.
keep in mind he does these by hand one at a time, so you ain't gonna be getting one tomorrow....or this week....or....
and totally unrelated, but fucking MORE terrible news, check this out....one of the ONLY places in Nashville that i actually go to....or used to....
heartbreaking.....Johnny is a sweet sweet guy and this was the ONLY cool card store in this town.
