Adventurebilt at 6

Post by prairiejones »

Hey, hat fans. Here is my AB that is coming up on six years old. This hat is as good, if not better than it was back then. No taper. self bash is still good. Just a little dirt and sweat marks. Oh, and the liner finally came out a couple of years ago.

Just got back from family trip to Colorado. Here are some good hat pics. I know that that is what you want.
Here I am with AB and SG in CO. Of course I struck the famous Penman Pose.

There aren't too many guitars that look better than a red SG or 335.

Am I lame for liking the 330 better? I have a red one from 1963...P-90 pickups are my all-time favorite. Much preferred (by me) to humbuckers.

sorry to derail.
awesome hat!

Well, being a Gretsch man, myself, I think they look a LOT cooler than the average Gibson, but that just proves that there are just as many opinions regarding guitars as there are for hats. Speaking of which, nice hat. ;)
