CHAMPION OF THE WEALD

Tao of the man bun......

I count five.  

Kay model 45 (K-45) also known as the Austin Hatchet - travel guitar from the early 1980′s.  Some called it the “Rifle” guitar.  Through-the-neck construction. Came with strap, gig bag, and available as a bass model as well.  Twin humbuckers with flip switch selectors, one volume, two tone controls and a phase switch (models differ on this config).  Hard to stand and gig with due to the odd weight distribution.  

Find one for a couple hundred bucks and have some fun!

The gist of my early teen, raging hormone driven scheme to get girls - with a backup plan.  

Forget about your lame “Guitarist of the Week”.  

Before Elvis, before Chuck Berry, before Johnny Cash - get off your keyster and educate yourself about Sister Rosetta Tharpe “The Godmother of Rock and Roll."   A guitar player ahead of her time - maybe by several decades - crankin it out on her SG custom with amp dialed in to 11.
