Not anymore, he hurt his back and had to retire Image

I'll take the one in the middle of the upper back row, thanks! :-)

That one you can have! But the ones with the black PG are off-limits, I simply MUST have one of them, just can't tell which one...

Dave, beware, I am coming up soon to try and talk you out of one of those! Image Image

It's no wonder there aren't any Rick doublenecks for sale - You have them all, Dave!

Thank you all for the kind words…

Jeff; you are the five string king for sure.

They weigh 14.5 lbs; so they are playable.

Elys, yours’ is the one on the top left (of the black background photos). It is the one on the Far right (on the wall photos). That one has done a lot of traveling in the last few months. It came from Trott’s house to Alisha’s house to my house, and for its’ final leg, Elys will drive it home.

The AZ Blue with the white guards was entrusted to me by our resident pick up guru, Sergio. Strangely, that one made it from his home in Portugal, to my house in around 48 hours. Thank you again, for sending “Star” to the 4080 reserve where it will spend the rest of its’ days frolicking with its’ kind.

How's this for some fancy doubleneck playing?

I witnessed this first hand in March '86 when SRV toured Oz with The Fabulous Thunderbirds.

As a young teen NOTHING was cooler then this. Now looking back at, I think that I stand by my statement.

It does seem a bit pathetic that my guitar collecting obsession is attributed to only one song.
