Round Robin in the Red Room

RGC members spent a winter’s evening in the comfortable Red Room on East Avenue, entertaining one another with their guitar favorites. As always, the range of style and variety of instruments kept everyone interested in hearing something new.

One highlight of the evening was Kinloch Nelson’s detailed exposition on how he handmade his harp-guitar...complete with extra bass strings and running lights...with just a few common household tools, minimal expense, lots of imagination and a little help from luthier, Bernie Lehmann.
