Feelin’ Glad All Over

Lenny Davidson of the Dave Clark Five pays us a visit.

A favorite customer and friend of ours came in with his father to get a little work done on dad’s travel guitar.  Some of the tuning gears had been stripped to Bits and Pieces so we installed a new set and strung it up. Dad, as it turns out, is Leonard “Lenny” Davidson of The Dave Clark Five. He was kind enough to tell some great stories of playing alongside a 14 year old Jimmy Page, of playing The Ed Sullivan Show and Carnegie Hall, and of a ‘61 Strat he kind of wishes he hadn’t sold for 70 pounds. The DC5 were inducted into the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame in 2008 and here’s some excellent video of that night.  Thanks for the visit and for snapping a picture with us.
