Re: Pete Townshend's guitar?
So despite the apology I don't think there's any need for personal insults (I'll get my coat and cancel my account!)
And while we're at it, whilst I don't feel I owe anyone an explanation about my lack of posts on this forum in the past 2 years, I actually enjoy playing my guitars and indulging in ...

Re: Pete Townshend's guitar?
So I finally got to personally speak to Alan Rogan :) ... (Very nice chap! 8) )
Had quite a long chat with him about my 1997
He said that Pete really just uses his guitars as the "tools of the trade" and although there's no real provenance with my guitar, from the conversation and all the ...

Re: Pete Townshend's guitar?
Hi Dave, welcome.
Cool guitar, great story, but that's not one of Pete's guitars.
Here's some more info:
1.) Your guitar may be a US-domestic market 330S model. These were the same as a Rose Morris 1997, but with an R-tailpiece or trapeze tailpiece (take your tailpiece off and snap a photo of ...

I've been trying to find out if this second guitar is possibly one of Pete's Rickenbackers from the mid sixties but getting any help on the matter is difficult to say the least!
I've owned this guitar since 1991 and I ...
