"A man whose career involved him in virtually every aspect of the country music business. Cliffie Stone starred on West Coast radio, records and television. During the 1950s, he hosted the Southern California TV show Hometown Jamboree on which he played this triple-necked instrument. It originally belonged to Stone's father, a popular comedian known by the stage name Herman the Hermit."
