Amsterjaming...

Key West is known for taking care of each other when things are getting tough.
A few weeks ago there was a fundraiser at the Blue Heaven for a local musician named Lou 'Blue Lou' Feinberg that needed help with his medical bills.
A lot of local treasures donated by local artist and businesses where available through a silent auction and a live auction was to be held for 4 acoustic guitars and one Heineken promotional electric guitar all signed by the local musicians playing their tunes on the fundraising event.
Our friend Joe Forte was the generous happy winning bidder on the Heineken guitar, which he bought for his grandson.
I convinced Joe to trade me his guitar for a similar Heineken guitar I had bought on eBay, and the deal is done.
This piece of Key West history electric Heineken "Amsterjam" guitar is now on display at the Coffee Plantation.
Come by to check it out... It's beautiful
