is clear eyed and leavened with humour... "

a gift rare enough to set her apart from most of her folk-pop
peers. yet the performances on [time between trains] also illustrate
the power and beauty of her voice..."

guitar is a 12 fret Chameleon. It is rosewood with a sitka
spruce top. Shown here with Chris at the New Bedford festival.
This was here first Jenkins which she latter traded in for
the cutaway version she now plays. |

The
guitar that Susan is playing in this shot is a custom guitar that
Chris built from 1960's Dan Electro Longhorn body he bought for
$10 at a guitar show. The body was never finished when the original
company went belly up.
Chris added a 25 1/2" scale neck and vintage lipstick pickups
to build her second favorite guitar.
Note the distinctive Jenkins' headstock. |
