Welcome to the
Old Closet
Site of The Old Man With The Old Guitars
2. Is It "Original" & does it matter?
3. Scalloped versus Straight Braces?
I keep the site up to answer questions players frequently ask.
Not many guitars left in this old mans closet. Just a handfull of favorites.
If you see something that interests you drop me an e-mail at: dettenheim @bellsouth.net
I no longer keep pictures updated and posted as I am not anxious to sell the guitars I have left. Still I list all the guitars I still own and will certainly sell all but one acoustic and one electric.
I've got a good bit of recording and audio gear left in my old studio as well as some keyboards. I still have several old bowlback mandolins but nothing very expensive.in the mandolin group.
