AH, Christmastime… when the nip in the air signals the coming of the season of giving. Hopefully COVID won’t be the only thing we give to each other this year, but it’s not exactly the first time that we’ve had problems this time of year.

Next, on this Christmas special of “If Guitars Could Speak…”
