Dear forum member.
I’d like to introduce my 1959 Burst what had been owned by G.E Smith till in early 80’s. This burst sold at Tokyo in 2001. So long time same owner hold it and I got it September 7th in 2019.
Some Japanese magazine featured G.E Smith gears live at Tokyo in 1982. And there are some fact that this guitar was owned by G.E. Not only magazine article and photos but also sticker which is proof of possession by him.
Unfortunately this guitar was dropped from G.E’s hand accidentally and headstock was snapped off. After that he repaired and used. But we don’t know who repair it. Head Top Hollywood and logo, Fingerboard were seemed to be reused.
I strongly want to know about history of this Burst. If anybody know about this guitar’s history, please full fill the piece of story. I’d like to know any kind of information about this guitar.
I’ll update more photos.
Thanks Folks.
