A fantastic post, Andy. I am just thrilled you have this Rickenbacker. Do you sing a mean falsetto too? :)

There doesn't seem to be a category for "celebrity owned". Did I miss it? It would be nice to be able to indicate that status, so that you could search celebrity owned guitars here, and who the celebrity, or celebrities, are that are associated with it.

Yes Indeed I 2nd this motion!

I would call it "provenance" myself... "Belonged to John Lennon"

or where you got your guitar too... "Bought from Manny's Music NYC in 1983"

Or used onthe track "Shadow and Lights on A&M LP EASTERN WIND"... anything that might be of interest to some future owner of the guitar. Maybe this doesn't show in the public listing that the world sees. Only when you look at the item view while logged in as a group member perhaps?

Just an idea.

Brian: We are all for new ideas. Perhaps Gil will put his thinking cap on in this regard. :)

That's bizzare... I just this very moment PM'd him about this!

And I would like to publically state that I think he has done an OUTSTANDING job looking after this.. :D :D :D

Brian: I agree. Gil's work is simply outstanding. There is a fair bit of work, behind the scenes, that is not transparent to the user.

Maybe there could be a current listing somewhere of celebrity owned guitars until this idea is implemented?

Hey guys,
My mom always told it's better late than never...

A new field was added and a celebrity instrument can be easily marked and searched (on the search page).

Enjoy!
So long and thanks for all the fish!
