Hi Everyone - I wanted to share an awesome story. A few months ago I came across a kind fella with his original 1960 ES-355 TDSV. He bought it new in late 1960 at Shakleton's Music in Louisville, KY for his band, the Redcoats....As you can see from the guitar, it's a very fitting instrument for the band! He had this band from 1957 until they disbanded in 1969. The guitar then went into hibernation in his closet as he didn't play much guitar after that. That is, until now! He was kind enough to pass the torch to me and I couldn't be happier. So meet, the Redcoat: The original, flamey 1960 ES-355 from Kentucky. Cheers!
