A Kalamazoo guitar was donated
Friday, July 22, 2011 Posted by Blogger

Mick Kolassa of Oxford, who writes: "The guitar is a 1937 Kalamazoo KG-11, typical of the 'parlor guitars' of its day, slightly smaller but with a very big sound. It was the first step up after a Stella, and made for those who liked the Gibson style and sound, but couldn't afford a true Gibson. Gibson was founded and based in Kalamazoo, Michigan, so they gave that name to their entry level guitar. Robert Johnson was known to play a Kalamazoo KG-14, which is a slightly larger version of this guitar."

The guitar of R. L. Burnside, hill country blues boogie master, is now part of our collection.

The Museum has also acquired the guitar of Michael James, "Dr. Mike," who taught in our Arts and Education program.

African instruments were donated by Acoustic Africa.
