BORN TO FLY: Christmas Gift of My Daddy's Gibson

What could be the most heartfelt, filled with the warmth of home, the love of family, and the joy of the holiday season, than receiving a special gift from your close family but if this gift is part of your family heritage then it becomes something much more. It becomes a continuing story of something that connects us throughout our lives and it is meant to be passed along to future generations.

This Christmas Carol Ann Wood of Born To Fly shares her personal story through a new hit song My Daddy's Gibson which paints a picture of Carol's life and the stories her mother told about meeting Carol's father, her great love for her new husband and how much she wanted to surprise him on their first married Christmas together with a beautiful Gibson that she'd seen in town.

The Tacoma Guitar & Drum Festival at the Tacoma Dome is the biggest guitar event and the largest gathering of the musician community in the Pacific Northwest. We met there with a special guest Paul Reed Smith – a founder and owner of PRS Guitars, a modern guitar legend.

Modern because PRS Guitars is a newer name compared to other sharks of the guitar world, like Gibson, Fender, Rickenbacker, and others. We talked about music industry, guitar making, and branding because PRS has become a big worldwide brand in the last few decades.
