Was that a gibson?


Not likely. If it wasn't a Gretsch it was probably one of Bo's handmade instruments. I suspect, since it was given to him by Bo himself, it would have been one of his own. Imagine what that might be worth? :unsure:

Yeah, too bad the sound track was so messy, they're a real tight, well balanced group. Looks like they'd be fun live.

Yeah, he's a blast to watch/listen to. He's got Bo's sound and groove pretty well dialed in. Hope he's around for awhile.

Got that, too, mon. Enjoyed that conversation. Posted Image
