Thanks Frank
but I would like to find out more about his
Scottish connection.His father was originally from
Edinburgh prior to moving to Chelsea and also Jack
made an early electric guitar by fitting his guitar
with a small pickup and wiring it up to a speaker
after a gig in Edinburgh in 1939.(electric guitars
originated in the mid 40s!)
Any info/photos/reminiscences of this gig (name of
band etc) gratefully received.
Thanking you in anticipation for any help.
Ronald John Saunders
