Yesterday I was saddened by the news of the passing of Dale Hyatt. Not only because he was such a powerful influence on what took place on Fender Ave., but because he was the kind of guy you enjoyed being around. He had a genuine interest in the creation and development of some of the finest instruments on the market. Anyone who owns or has played a G&L knows that they are fine instruments. What might not be known is who was responsible for so much of the product line. If you have ever wondered about what makes a G&L a G&L, it behooves you to read the post that Gabe posted yesterday, March 28th. The title is March 28th, a sad day in history. This will give you a glimpse into who Dale was and why he is truly an unsung hero in the history of the electric guitar.
Although I am aware that the media will mostly ignore his passing, it would be a travesty if this board does the same.
Rest in peace Dale and thanks for your contribution to my life and the lives of so many that never had the good fortune to know you.
Fred
