Oh My Gawd

Not sure if anyone brought this one up as I have been out of pocket for the past couple of weeks but I have found it ---- the Gibson I covet above all others. Lonnie Johnson's J-100. Lordy, if this guitar could speak.

I had the honor of playing this very guitar not too long ago at the dealer's. Couldn't afford it, but it was something to actually hold , pick and strum this legend. Ce

I was thinking it would be worth a trip back home just to get to hold it once.

Where can I learn more about this guitar? (URL?)

It's on Gbase, for sale at Bernunzio:

I'm going to guess that this is a guitar that we mere mortals won't be able to easily afford.

I'm actually surprised that hasn't sold yet. Not only is that a beautiful old girl, but Lonnie Johnson was one of the most innovative guitarists of all time, imo. A great player. You'd think some collector would have snatched this up by now.

Maybe if we organized a fund-raiser, say a walkathon perhaps? :-)

Actually, there's a post over at the UMGF that says this guitar is on hold. That's not confirmed however.....
