GUITARS ON THIS ALBUM COVER

Here are the guitars you'll find on this album cover
Each one is a part of me and each has a special story
Gretsch Jim Dandy I bought for someone who didn't want it
Danelectro baby sitar, less complicated than my real one
Eastwood tenor electric, a treasure for this cellist
Gretsch Electromatic, a nod to Martin Gore
Washburn acoustic parlor, which I bought used in England
DeArmond Starfire, I love it except for high solos
Morgan Monroe banjo, which I won at an auction
Yamaha classical, I played at a vocal recital

Let's continue with the guitars on this album cover
In the room I can't escape because I'm still social distanced
Danelectro 12-string, my poor-man's Rickenbacker
Martin StreetMaster 15M, which I self-gifted last Christmas
Gretsch Jet, an homage to my favorite Beatle
Orange "O" Bass, it's elegantly simple
Gretsch New Yorker, to get back to my roots
Thunderbird bass, because Simon Gallup's the coolest
Montana acoustic, which I bought from a pawn shop
It's played many a show, but I fear its days are over
