Here's what I've been able to find out about the chronology:

Pete supposedly received the cheap guitar from his Granny on Christmas
Day of 1956.  He didn't join with John and his group The Confederates
until 1959 around the time he turned 14.  I imagine the whole ugly
incident happened around then.
