Many people ask me about the mods on my '57 Les Paul, and notice what Jeffrey did to my vintage Strat, as well. Yes, he did all those! When I met "Skunk," I didn't know he played guitar (around 1970). Guitarist Lowell suggested I pay him a visit, to do work in some of my new (old) guitars. And there a deep friendship was born. At the time, the band he was in, Steely Dan, was recording their first album, but no one had heard of them. After a few seasons - and a few hits - Jeff left that band to join the Doobie Brothers, and brought Michael McDonald in with him. There are too many stories, too many chapters to tell, but Jeff and I got down to the nexus of this conversation quickly: our deep friendship and respect for each other, with guitar stories thrown in. Enjoy!
~ June
