Happy Birthday Don!

On a funny side note, I just picked up a couple guitars from my favorite local repairman/tech/luthier, who is very good at what he does. On Facebook awhile back, he had posted that he worked with Don's backline/cartage/tour supply company and he got to recently work on some of Don's Les Paul guitars recently and repair them and posted a pic of the guitars. I picked his brain about it (of course!) when I picked my guitars up and got to hear a little more information. I really am happy I have him as my tech. He's truly one of the best I've found at making guitars play and sound their best. Now I can say Don Felder and I share a guitar repairman. Probably as far as we'll share of anything, but hey it's something at least. lol

That's a pretty cool piece of trivia, Austin. You must know your guitars pretty darn well to choose a tech that Don would use.

Happy birthday a day late to Don! I've been sick this weekend so I'm a bit off my game. Stayed home from church today and everything. That's a lovely letter he received from his fan! And cool about your guitar tech, Austin!

Happy Belated 72nd Birthday to Fingers. I hope he had a great day. He was just here in MS two weeks ago. I wasn't able to go.

He did like my post on his Instagram page.

Here's the best part. I've been using this guy for about 3 years now - even before he started working with Don (just last month). I was pretty proud when I saw that Don had sent him his guitars to work on. :grin:
