Joe Perry lists the Blade Runner as one of his stage guitars for the Las Vegas residency. I guess it was in the Walk This Way video from the 80's, so he's hung on to his along time! This is the only link to a photo I could find:

Interestingly, the linked article says it will be in the museum until October ... does he have more than one?

Nice! I’ll make sure to add that to my X100 review.

The one in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York exhibition has no "Guild" written on the body, so it is the duplicated version of the Guild and not an original Guild guitar!

Found this on Twitter (user tako217) from Las Vegas April 27, 2019, you clearly see the Guild name there, so this is his only real one:

There are two recent short videos:

And this from May 9th, 2019: https://twitter.com/i/status/1126553488010252288

From the end of the article in the first link.

"I don't know how many they made; the guy who gave it to me from the Guild said it was a prototype. I had another one duplicated from a guitar-maker friend of mine, so I have two, just in case something happens to the original. They're very rare, I don't know how many they made actually."

One of our fellow LTGrs has a bunch of them...might that be a pic of his collection?

I had two at one point. Grot's the only one I know with a matching guitar and bass, though.
