For a long time I had a Gretsch White Falcon, and sold it for a song because I needed the money for tuition.
Wish I had hung onto it.
Also got for Christmas The Beatles biography by Bob Spitz. It's a very comprehensive biography, and does not leave many stones unturned. Certainly John Lennon is not left in a good light.
I didn't GET one for Christmas this year, but I GAVE 2 Grand-daughters each a Squier Mini and amp/strap/book/bag/cord/picks, etc.
