    I grew up in La Grande. This was my favorite place to go as a Boy Scout. Right up there with the coast as my favorite places to visit in the world. I know live in the Boise area--I’ve only been back a couple times. Need to return soon.

    After seeing this video, I purchased one of these tents from TarpTent and set it up in my basement. I’m 6’5” and it wasn’t even close to fitting. I returned it the next day to TarpTent and was berated for doing so by Henry Shires himself. You can assume I will never purchase a TarpTent or items from any other zero character people.

    OMG, Ernie, I knew him by name and voice only from waay back when Historic line was very young, around 1996-ish, I called the Custom Shop for a little jar of nitro, for some minor damage on one of my R9's, and another time for a pickguard or something, I owned several reissues then, Ernie was the guy that I spoke with. When I clicked on this video I saw the name and heard that voice, over 25 years ago and I remembered right away. R.I.P. Ernie, I'll see you there some day, I'll be 70 in July.

Congrats Boscoe dude you deserve that guitar and because of you some of us got to meet Earnie too thru the video.
