This picture shows me with a classical guitar and my friend (and guitarist) Dante pretending to
play my old keyboard. I don't remember the keyboard brand (I think it was GEM).
Also, the restored photo is different from the original one since ChatGPT refuses to rework a
picture showing two adolescents smoking cigarettes.

My Eko acoustic fretless bass
(late '70s - early '80s)

 


In didn't remember it,
but according this photo
in February 1982 i owned
a 6 strings banjo

 


I don't even remember this one, but on half '80s
I had this classic guitar too

 

 
I bought the Roland Juno 106 from my brother
Emilio in Paris in 1989.
I was fascinated by the infinite possibilities of
its sounds.
Some years later, I resold it on eBay.

 


I bought the Korg M1 in 1989 from RES Rubini,
and for many years it was a very important
instrument to me.
I don't remember when I sold it on eBay.
