I was 10 years old when my Uncle Ronnie gave me my first guitar.  What was not vintage then , is vintage now...  a 1956 Sears Silvertone.  Ever since that day, I have had a passion for music and for over 40 years have been writing and playing rockin' rhythm and blues, swing and old country tunes with my band Johnny & The East Coast Rockers.  My inspiration for creating these playable art guitars is to bring to life found, recycled and repurposed objects reminiscent of simpler times.
