Nothing like kicking off Woodstock with a Guild...which is made to be played.

Then using an SG for crackin' heads.

Hey Cap, great minds think alike apparently!

I almost posted that very same clip yesterday after seeing Richie on the Guild.

But I also had to watch this: :shock:

Outstanding. So much fun to watch that guy work. I've never seen anybody else play like him. Just something to behold. And, oh yeah, the punishment he gives those D-40s is beyond belief.

Hello Bill,

Yes, that kinda looks like a jumbo but it is actually what would be considered a 'small jumbo' now. It's a late '60s Guild F-47 with the optional magnetic pickup package.
Sounds pretty horrible when you plug it in but I guess they used a different standard at that time.

Sincerely,

Hans Moust

Dear Hans,

Thanks for that observation...I did note a bunch of "iron-mongery" on the guitar
but decided to stay moot on that...glad you cleared it up!

Best regards,

Bill

Alvin has flown under the radar forever. They need a "Rodney Dangerfield Room" in the R&R HOF, for all the cats who get no respect.

Hi Doc; he was very popular in my unit in my service days. Blazing hands ... the guy could flat out play.
