Nope! That Yamahopper is somewhere between 13 and 16 years old. And so is the Vox VT15 its played through.

I can't remember what came first, the guitar or the drum kit, but both are Yamaha and purchased from the same dealer in town. Amp as well.

I think there is an optical allusion taking place. I'm not a lefty.

Glad you enjoyed the post. It was with this guitar that I gritted my teeth so hard. Not because of the guitar, but because I was so frustrated with myself. It's good once in a while to look back and realize we can take things too seriously. Things that are meant to be pleasant, become tedious and burdensome.

Edit: my son inherited my performance gene. He's the stage man.
