Marshall, Congrats on the guitar and your graduation!

We have seen this guitar before. It was owned by an RRF member and originally had black guards, TRC, and hardware. I believe there is a thread about it somewhere.

There is something special about a white guitar.

Cool parents, life is good, and the future looks bright. Enjoy it! 8)

You pegged that one, Kevin......that's the handiwork of yours truly......great guitar....it is actually
really, really white.....no discoloration and I think it looks sooooo much better with the white trim and
chrome hardware. Enjoy it, Marshall!!!

I love the WHT WT with chrome hardware color scheme.

BTW Marshall, I got to hang out with Marty for a while at last spring's NAMM show ... he is an absolutely wonderful person.

Does your band ever come to Memphis?
Yeah, I lucked out and got some good folks :)

We pretty much stay in Little Rock, but we do have plans to come to Memphis soon...I'll keep you posted. If you're up for a drive, we are playing Riverfest in Little Rock on the 22nd...opening for the B-52's. It would be cool to see a fellow RRF member there!

It really is incredibly white, I had to borrow some shoeshine from God to polish it. This is a wonderful guitar Craig, I absolutely love it. I don't think I've put it down for more than two hours in the last three days.

Thanks! You got it pegged, man. Full width inlays would be cool, that and a set of toasters would make it beyond perfect.

Everybody else - thanks for the congratulations!

Yeah, the white on white with chrome really caught my attention...I knew within 30 seconds or seeing the picture that I had to have it. :D

In '02 I got to see the Church in DC, I talked to Kilbey for a second and got to speak very briefly with Marty, who was running the merch table. Nicest guys on the planet - Steve was a bit reserved because he had his daughters with him, which is totally to be expected, I didn't want to bug him. I hope to hang out with Marty at the show in Chicago. I'd love to spend a few hours digging in his record collection. I had a conversation with him over Myspace about the Monks and Dave Dee, maybe he will remember that.
