Even worse is Lennon's 325 Ric. Kinda the wrong shape. :shock: :lol:

Right, that Lennon Ric looks like a Strat!! I would also say that Hendrix's Strat would be more appropriate in white!

It wouldn't take much effort to make this poster more accurate, I'm surprised they didn't, because the idea is a great one...

Thunder, I thought you were going to say that Thayil's S-100 is missing!

Another good catch. They really should run the final editing of such things past us to ensure accuracy. :wink: We're not just limited to correct TRC orientation.

Muddy's Thunderbird or Buddy's Starfire would have been some appropriate Guild representation, along with Walrus' suggestion for Kim Thayil's S-100.

Dylan's '64 Strat was the first electric at the Newport Folk Festival, not the Jazz Festival as annotated. Plus, I'm reasonably sure that Muddy Waters used an electric earlier, possibly as early as 1959.

Actually the one that was flamed at Monterey was black.
Trivia note: Frank Zappa eventually acquired it and was on the cover of an issue of Guitar Player with it.
He took all kinds of guff for leaving it un-refinished.
:lol:

Actually, I was thinking of his Woodstock Strat...
