I don't post much here anymore

Post by Notes_Norton »

I don't post much here anymore. Why? There really isn't much to say.

I'm gigging 20 to 24 one-nighters per month, most of them outdoors, 3 days a week right near the ocean, and my Parker DF guitars are just extremely reliable. A little DeOxit keeps the jack/plug clean, and they stay in tune well. What more could a guitarist ask for?

The salt air has put a little rust on the tuners, I've worn some paint off the trem slab at the heel, and I've got them a little dirty, but they work just fine, stay in tune, and sound great.

The best guitar investment I've ever made.

My Yamaha sax is getting all corroded, but it's as reliable as my Parkers. I bought it used to play outdoors, to keep my 'good' saxophone from getting oxidized, but I find I like the Yamaha every bit as good.

Life is the perfect way to pass the time of day, and gigging is the most fun I can have with my clothes on.

So I just wanted to say "Hello" to everyone. I stop by once a week or so, but really have nothing to add.

Thanks. I got lucky.

My wife, who I met when we were in different bands, have had this duo going since 1985. The only time we were out of work was during the pandemic lockdown.
