Yep, that's my boy. Austin has been setting up with me and our band off and on for 2 years. It is amazing the way he is playing after such a short time.

Austin's Emmons is BLACK, mine is a "one of a kind" HUNTER GREEN (I sent the laminate to Emmons Co for this 1993 LeGrande

I am sssssooooooooooooooo proud of Austin. He is definately a keeper.

Love you boy,
Mr. Bill[/img]

way to go Austin, you need to teach me some of that. everybody calls me a kid and a young player, heck i just hit 33 last week, i aint a teenager anymore. to play that great at 18 is awesome, keep it up man you got a bright future ahead.

An 18 year old playing like that! Wait a few more years and see how he'll be tearing it up. Good playing Austin.
