Saw on ebay where a Gibson RB-175 with orig. chipboard case just sold for about $450 plus shipping, Granted the neck had a repaired crack, and the case was in so-so shape, but this close to Christmas that was a very low price. Even Vega Folklores and some Seeger models are going at bargain prices. Makes me sad.

Spent all the time I've been with BHO discovering long lost long necks that I coveted during my folk group days and filling my collection. Not an investment so I am not bothered by dropping prices. I would like to see another folk music era. To me, the long neck has always been background for vocals, ala Dave Guard and John Stewart. Indeed, there are fewer folkies out there, but I am proud to be one - surrounded by the banjos and guitars of the folk era. To my fellow folkies, proud to know you! giweb

	Old Gray Coat Linked by Bluesage 7 months ago: My first attempt at working out this great Tony Rice composition on the open long neck. It lays our pretty well!

MP3: What Would The Prophets Say? Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: The religious basis of authority in the Middle East (or anywhere for that matter) is the source of a lot of suffering and is unsustainable. The violence is mostly perpetrated on women and children.
MP3: You'll Never Leave Texas Alive Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: A sad murder ballad of a sort. Some murderers wear nice clothes and use pens and paper to kill and never see their victims.
MP3: Ten Years On Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: A lament, written for the 10th anniversary of the Sandy Hook school shooting. Sadly there are still parents who are irresponsible or foolish, and parents who suffer as a result.
MP3: Shutdown The System Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: The pursuit of money is alienating, enervating, and exhausting. Here’s a song of resistance to finance capitalism.
MP3: Take The Wheel Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: A song about mentorship, inspired by my mentor and HIS mentors too, that takes the form of the story of a ship’s mate being “shown the ropes”. The old sea captain may also have been a long-neck player
