Carl Wilson Folks Quotations

My folks got me a single cutaway Kay. It was acoustic but it also had a pickup. That's the guitar I learned to play on.

I remember growing up always loving the guitar. I used to love to watch the people play on the Country Western shows on TV. My folks told me that when I was just a toddler, I used to pretend I was playing a guitar on a toothpick.

I had been playing for about a year and a half when the Beach Boys formed. When our folks went to Mexico on business, we would take the food money they had left us and we would rent instruments.
