A 6 string Silvertone acoustic guitar that my Mom bought for me at the sporting goods store for $57 in the late 60’s.

It almost made me give up the idea of playing guitar. It was hands down the worst guitar I’ve EVER came across. After 6 months of trying to play that ungodly beast, I gave up on it and stuffed it under the bed.

I’d go to my friend’s house and play his Yamaha until I ran across a 12 string Japanese Terada for $50.

I took 6 of the strings off and that’s what I learned to play on, at least until someone stole it!
