Probably didn't make the national news, but Virgil L. Lay has passed away. Anyone involved in the Akron music scene knows of Lay's Guitar Repair, and his reputation among musicians was known worldwide.
Guitars would show up in boxes at his repair shop, shipped from tours around the globe, to be repaired by Virgil. His clients included Joe Walsh, Donnie Iris, and Jack Bruce, among others.

He was truly a guitar nut, and will be missed by many guitarists.
