Buck was a wonderful person.

In 1998, Fender put out a red, silver and blue Buck Owens Telecaster. I bought one, and my friend(long story I won't get into) had contact with Buck's secretary. Well, I mailed the gold pickguard off to Bakersfield, and she wrote me back, that "Buck is afraid that any Sharpie will rub off, how would you feel about him getting it engraved for you?"

I offered to pay for the engraving, and she wrote back, "Buck won't hear of it. He's glad to do it for a fan" What a class act he was.
