albertjohn Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 A friend of mine and I have been playing this at some open mic sessions recently. I usually play the 12 str part but was learning the lead last night and came across this. (It starts slowly but worth the wait.) Looks like a 185 but has some unusual marking on the headstock and fretboard markers. Hard to see on this video. Maybe some Custom Shop creation? Any ideas? I'm going to have a go at the falsetto lead middle section but I may have to utilise the capo in an unorthodox fashion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TM Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 It is a J-200 Celebrity, but made in limited numbers in 1984 I believe. They also did a J-45 Celebrity. One of the J-200 was on ebay a while back. They are very nice looking guitars. I saw a clip of Mark Knofpler and Chet Atkins, one of them is playing a Celebrity.
