I have a vintage country band in Orlando Florida called Giddy Up Go..
i'm the rhythm / singer / songwriter in the band.. playing an acoustic gibson J-185.
i've had several vintage guitars ('74 Telecaster Thinline / '79 Hagstrom Super Swede / '66 Jaguar) all were great guitars, but were lacking that "vintage country vibe" i was looking for.
Lost my job 2 years ago and had to sell 'em to survive! Now i'm back working again...
i'm on a mission (meaning i'm saving-up) for a single neck Joe Maphis Mosrite - can't get any more country than Joe Maphis, right?? (i've got about 90% of his records!) and i've loved that Mosrite twaaaang he produces!!
i've read about a 100 guitar books that mention Mosrite and the story behind it all.... and that's made me wanna learn more.

our lead guitarist is pretty good (i think) he ol' school & makes his strat sound like a steel guitar!
also we've been playin' out alot more lately & have tightened up alot since this gig..
