The boys and Christmas anticipation

Their both thirteen and I just caught them in the one downstairs room. Where we keep all the guitars and amps pedals parts that dad has collected over the years. I asked what is going on the innocence they gave me was actually Oscar worthy. I know what their looking for our one son was asking for a Prs se 24 standard in blue. I found him the guitar almost two months ago. And I swapped out pickups to Prs American and hardware. all to the way to a five way selector blade and caps and wiring to the pots. Both boys their bird crazy with the Prs Guitars.

Now dad is one step ahead of them I was stashing the guitar at friends home. And now have moved it to the trunk of wife’s car. Not sure if I want to let him open up his gifts and not put the guitar under the tree. And then say hey mister run out to your mothers car and get my hoodie out the trunk and he will see the case. Not sure what I want to do I think that he needs the anticipation.

Can imagine him opening the lid, and light from the blessed guitar illuminating his teenage face.

Merry Christmas!
