Articles and thoughts from the mind of Deke
Memories of Ron Testerman
Ron was a freewheeling bachelor who loved women and cars and planes and having a good time. He wasn’t particularly interested in all the serious, “settling down” nonsense that all the churchgoing people we knew were so concerned with.
Al Hartel and the Mosrite “Surfrite” Guitar
I spent the afternoon with Thomas Hartel, whose father, Al Hartel, made the famous “Surfrite” surfboard Guitars for Mosrite in the 1960s. Thomas contacted me recently after seeing a video I shot at Norman’s Rare Guitars.
A Visit to Ridgecrest, California
Yesterday I drove up to Ridgecrest, on the edge of China Lake (where the Navy has their Naval Air Weapons Station), close to Death Valley. You don’t accidentally go to Ridgecrest. It’s a town on the edge of nowhere out in the hot California desert.
