Dave Kyle's new book, soon to be available from 1st Books Library. It is a never before told account of his experiences as a musician, writer and broker for some of the world's most famous musical instruments and their owners.
As a feature writer for Vintage Guitar magazine, his cover stories include Chet Atkins (2), Duane Allman, Carl Perkins, Roy Rogers, Mike Bloomfield, Elvis Presley, Marty Stuart and many others.
Kyle gathered some interesting stories while touring Europe, Asia and North America. The book also gives several accounts of time spent playing in a staff band on a weekly television series. The program featured many up and coming Nashville recording artists as well as several established acts.
After deciding to retire from road life, he started Dave Kyle Guitars which dealt in vintage and celebrity owned instruments. Among the more famous of these were George Harrison's Rosewood Fender Telecaster (pictured), Elvis's Rosewood Tele, Buck Owens's red, white & blue Tele, John Lennon's Melotron, Duane Allman's first guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Junior), and several instruments used by Waylon Jennings.
