Coming Soon to a Theater near you!
Some times words fell short to describe something so beautiful....
Kim and the Historic Makeover team really do make dreams come true, this one is for Joe B. and it is an spectacular master piece.  Enjoy.

Re: Coming Soon to a Theater near you!
I always wondered what the plate under the bridge was for... Might anyone on here know?

Re: Coming Soon to a Theater near you!
The serial # is also Joe's Birthday, That was a GT Prototype done by Gibson and it had no Serial # It was done at HM for Joe as a gift from his parents/family. (I think) ....I think its real nice. the bow tie will also be on the new Gibson Collectors series 1960, "Babe"
I haven't decided if I like the bow tie...adds weight....maybe a touch of tuxedo class...but I haven't worn a tux since 1990.... I understand that Joe loves it.

Re: Coming Soon to a Theater near you!
Nice guitar! Looks like it could use a refin though!

Wow! Aged GT's always get me going!

Re: Coming Soon to a Theater near you!

 I don't like those artificially aged guitars any more....its like driving an 58 Porsche Speedster replica on Sunset Blvd....

Joe ended up liking The Golden Melody the best:  It sounded like a bluesbreaker with reverb. http://youtu.be/KvUTjc-Tyco?hd=1 |
