Muttly Official SuperComputer not presently capable of downloading video feeds over pesky telephone wire, but if he could, would be holding forth on Mosrite guitars and fretboard radius, etc., finally trump himself with clever reference to Sandy Nelson.

O.K. Moi had a little personal problem during last heroic Post, so...late '60s gifted drummer friend had met/worked with Buddy and reported this.

Same fellow maintained, and Dad confirmed, that in Viet Nam, Dad had discarded his Mattel M-16 (model famed for only being good for hanging your bloody dog tags and .30 caliber-perforated helmet on) in favor of his boyhood-proven Winchester 1894 lever action .30-30....with which he lived, and returned to be an installer for the telephone company, bouncing a "superball" against the walls, to determine where the studs were.
