Well, this was unexpected yesterday. My magician friend Terry Godfrey had come by to bring me and my wife chicken tacos, and then had me come out to his van and gave me this odd square guitar--the Boxwood "Big Bird"! It's Oregon Claro walnut with an Alaskan Sitka top. Not the most lap friendly thing, but is is loud with plenty of sustain.
Last night I tuned it DADGAD and it sounds fantastic.
It's obviously the larger of the two. Terry is the best close up magician in San Diego county and we've been friends for almost 40 years.
When Vicki performed magic she used to go with him to magic lectures as she mainly did close up card magic--I go for the spooky stuff;
mentalism and spirit magic, as my hands are definitely "slower than the eye".
