It'd be really BOSS if you could make this available as a slideshow with narration in the PowerPoint or Slides format. I'd show it to my students (I teach music production)...
Myself and another guitar player friend of mine who grew up in Alaska, when we were kids and taking lessons at a music store called the Anchorage House of Music, both remember seeing a bigsby guitar in the store in the used guitar rack from about 1965 till about 66 or 67. I swear it said Travis on the pickguard though. I'm wondering if it could be the very same guitar. How many Bigsbys could have been in Alaska after all ? Maybe Merle Travis was in Anchorage an needed cash ? My E mail address

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Deke - you are a fantastic communicator, and you know stories that enrich all of us. You'd make a great educator.
This is awesome thanks for sharing.
