Musician, Guitarist

Bob Boss was encouraged to pick up an instrument at a young age by his parents and quickly gravitated toward the guitar when he received his first electric guitar: a Sears Silvertone for just $30. Bob decided to leave his guitar behind when he left for college, but quickly found that he missed his instrument and began studying under Jerry Hahn. During his Oral History interview, Bob expressed that the best part of his career was the opportunity he had to play with some extremely talented musicians. Recently reunited with his beloved Guild guitar that had been stolen, Bob described the sound he hears while playing his Guild and the relationship that a musician develops with their instrument.
