In High school Jazz band we had 2 other kids that played guitar with me and the rest of the band . The one kid had a small guard early 60's Cherry SG and the other kid had a early reissue Cherry Sunburst Les Paul and we were all like he has a Sunburst (which we were in awe of) that does not look like Jimmy Page's Burst and I had my trusty Ebony Les Paul Custom . So the kid with the SG was a freaking virtuoso and could play rings and circles around us . We were not in his league what so ever . We were typical kids playing in our crummy garage bands and having fun . This kid was Jimmy Hendrix reincarnated . We would say play this and he would play it note for note . We could never come anywhere close to his skill or talent . As I write this I think of the irony that 3 kids playing in High School Jazz Band with Mr. Lutzy (who was a long haired Jazz aficionado ) all played Gibson Guitars . Only a Gibson was Good Enough for Jazz Band . I forgot to mention the school supplied us with Silverface Fender Twin Reverb's which we would try to get to distort which of course they would not and Mr. Lutzy did not allow us to use any stompboxes because when the 3 of us would warm up we would use some of our boxes which I had my Big Muff .
Life gets in the way most of the time. I updated the Crown Headstock thread with a juicy tid-bit. I'll try to post more often on LSLPs when I can. Thanks
