Would that now be a 2nd burst named Candy in Australia? The guitar formerly played by Simo (Candy) went to Australia when it was sold (I believe).
Hard to tell from the video, but this looks to be a different guitar.

Hey! That’s me in the white t-shirt! (to the right of camera)

I can confirm this is the same Candy, formerly owned by J.D Simo.

Just been hunting for the thead. Can't find it. I seem to remember that the ATC was involved somewhere and that the guitar has no serial number because it is a reneck. Correct?

Correct. ATC loaned it to JD to play.

The guitar sounds GREAT by the way.

Yessir! I was a little disappointed that he didn;t play it when I saw him a few years back in Dallas-until I heard how the 345 he had sounded! Jeezus!:dude:
