NeoConMan Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 cdntac posted a "Guitars of the stars" that wasn't what you would think - but very cool anyway. http://forums.gibson.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=31197 That inspired me to start this thread about the guitars that made those sounds we all know and love. Jimmy Page's famous Les Pauls, Telecaster and Danelectro for instance. It's rare to find a website for an artist that actually gives details about the gear they used. Many of them are fan sites, run without the participation of the person(s) at the heart of the matter. So, anybody who knows of some good pics of the actual guitars that hit us all like a ton of bricks - post 'em! Amps are fair game too, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdntac Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 If I get some opportunities to photograph a couple of Ted's shows this summer I'd like to get some better close-up shots of his guitars --- especially this one. Stupidly, I never thought of photographing this guitar on its own --- I just played it and drooled instead of shooting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Natural Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Here's your's truly with Junior Brown and his guit-steel built by Michael Stevens, way down in Alpine, Texas. I think (but don't quote me) Stevens used to work in the Fender Custom Shop before he opened up his own business in Alpine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pohatu771 Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 I remember walking into the fifth floor of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and seeing John Lennon's 1964 J-160E hanging on the wall across from me... There were hundreds of guitars in that building, including The Log, Joe Strummer's Telecaster, and one of Johnny Cash's Gibsons, but I stood and stared at that beat up Gibson for ten minutes... then went up the stairs to The Doors exhibit, and then stared at it again on the way down. It's in rougher shape than it was in that photo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
