Part 1 of the creating process of designing a Gibson Blues Ball Guitar for the 2008 Blues Ball Auction in Memphis, Tennessee. Special thanks to Pat Kerr Tigrett for allowing me this opportunity and www.memphischaritable.org *footnote update...I made 4 of these guitars and never got a thank you. I asked for a receipt so my Mother could deduct the $1000.00 she paid to the local Hardware/Lumber Company for the elements. Snubbed again. Mom said this was the last guitar I was going to make for Pat Tigrett.
