Good day to everyone.
I'm Tim and I live in Omaha and am the biggest Blackhawk fan around here,
I bought #76 from a private seller and sent it to Chris to set it up for me.
I started playing in 1967. Professionally since 1975. Been playing Strats since 1976 when I bought my first one. Blonde , ash body, maple neck. Still have it, it's retired though.
My dad used to play Chet Atkins and Les Paul records when I was a kid. I used to sit and listen and stare at the record covers thinking how cool those guys looked. I took lessons and was a pretty good sight reader but, in 1973, saw Deep Purple on a show on ABC called "Ïn Concert". Ritchie Blackmore left a strong impression and the next morning I told my guitar teacher I want to learn how to play rock guitar. It's been by ear ever since.

The first time I heard Chet Atkins, I had to pull my car over to the side of the road so I could listen without the distraction of driving. Blew my mind. Any pictures of that blonde '76?
