Carmelo Catania - restored, at last!

[alfstone]

This was my first guitar.

A Carmelo Catania model 0, made here in Sicily on 26 May 1969. My father bought it for 10000 Italian Lire (actually 5 Euro). I was 15. Restored, at last. No $$$ value at all, but it means a lot for me...

Alfredo

Beautiful, old-school acoustic, Alfredo. It must mean so much for you to see it back as it should be! Congratulations!

You're lucky Alfredo to have your first guitar again! Mine an Eko that looked a bit like your Camela. It sank in the Lake of Bourget one evening that I had a little too watered my Patent Elementaire (BEPC)

... since I counted, I had 19
