Who dat?

Post by bassduke49 »

This photo has appeared on the forum several times as I recall. Anyone know who this individual is and what shop? Who shot the photo? I'd love to use it in the book.

I believe that photo was taken at Truetone Music in Santa Monica. The owner's name escapes me.

I remember seeing a lefty 4005 at a guitar show in Del Mar around 1998 or 1999. Wonder if it was the same one?

I believe it's Ken Daniels of Truetone.

That is David Jenkins, who works at TrueTone, not Ken Daniels.

He still works there but don't expect him to go out of his way for you. Ask for anyone else that works there.
