Towards the end of his life Warren Zevon was doing one man shows that consisted of either a 12 string or a piano.
The 12 string always made songs like Lawyers, Guns and Money or Roland sound like you were still a kid walking on the midway.
Well, It is a lot of money for me. So I would hope something special happens and I can bust it open. I would enjoy it sharing with friends celebrating whatever good fortune came my way.
I have a 2016 that is not opened. And based on what this shit is currently selling for in my neck of the woods it probably won’t be for a while. So for now I will have to imagine it’s great.
Simply put? The lure of the original burst. That’s it, nothing else needed. It is for those of us who can’t pony up the $400,000 to buy a real one. But are foolish enough to believe a redo will scratch that itch.
I take it that this new show from those that left Bazelworld? I went a few years ago and it was a bit of a shock to see not one or two. But dozens of watches in the 6 figure range. Wearing a Rolex at Bazelworld was like racing a VW at Indy. Shame they all cut bait.
No, that is the cover story. No media would dare cross Clifford Robert’s. As they knew he was Bobby’s hand picked mouth piece. As such Robert’s was an admitted racist. And enforced the segregation policies stringently. Including his infamous quote about s whites playing and blacks carrying the clubs.
Lee took exception and challenged Robert’s..,.directly. The result of that was Lee choosing not to compete...in his prime.
Last thing. Why did anyone ever listen to the fade as his reason to not play? If you had seen him play the course you would know Trevino could hit a fucking draw if he had to. It was simply his preferred ball flight was left to right.
I completely understand. However I didn’t tell you to buy a really, really nice collectible instrument.......with a fire top.
Gibson didn’t make em all the same. I have seen a lot of the R series guitars that for the money, the tops were flat looking. Some guys dig the look, I ain’t one of those guys. When you find one that has F7 level maple on it, you buy it. In your case you keep it.
