Graham Griffith's Rick Collection

Folkie · Post by **Folkie** » Tue Oct 25, 2011 9:22 pm

Has anyone checked out the September issue (Vol. 22, No. 12) of Guitar & Bass magazine? There's an article called "Byrds of a Feather" featuring lots of photos of Graham Griffith's immense and varied Rick collection. I tried to find a link to it online with no success. Sorry guys!

Can someone please find the link and post it here?

Many thanks,

Robert

I used to go to Grahams website a fair amount, but my psychiatrist said it was measurably affecting my depression. Who knew that wires and wood could cause such hopelessness and despair?

Here you go. Collin took some screen shots of the magazine pages and posted them on page 3 of the folllowing thread. They are pretty good for viewing the photos.

Thanks, Ron! My searches for "Graham Griffith" and for the article's title came up with virtually nothing here, although it doesn't surprise me that someone's posted the article in a previous thread. I can't get enough of those photos!

From what I've seen, both of you are usually staggering before noon.

Just read that link. I didn't know the article caused such a controversy here. Nothing earthshaking in the text, but the photos are absolutely brilliant.

Well he must lose many of them, because every time I've seen him, he didn't have one on!

I think I have mentioned this elsewhere, but the wording is 95% fabricated BS, which at the time was a little frustrating. Ho hum.

I couldn't read most of the text, but I did notice the Turquoise 800 was called a 600.
