Re: Rose Morris Rickenbacker Gallery
Here's me playing Gary Clauson's 1998 Townshend signature model in August 2011. Every time I know I'm going to be seeing him, he always brings it out. I always ask before I touch it, and I'm always careful with it

That's right....sadly, I hear he's already knocked the headstock off while attempting a DIY recone on his Marshall...

Re: Rose Morris Rickenbacker Gallery
Just like you, I suspect Mr Townshend will now be treating his "new" 1993 with a good deal more care than he did his other originals back in the day. It seems he's learned a very expensive lesson...JakeK wrote:Here's me playing Gary Clauson's 1998 Townshend signature model in August 2011.

Nope, purchased from Pete Watson via Alan Rogan at well above the normal value of a 1993.

I wonder if Pete will give it an airing in upcoming gigs....that would be something to behold
Re: Rose Morris Rickenbacker Gallery
I heard that the said guitar went for £18k

I'm feelin' for ya Collin..if it were me, I think I'd be having an extreme case of seller's remorse by now...I hope you're holding up under the weight man!
Not at all - sharing the wealth!
Collin, this is altruism well above and beyond the call of duty. Now I'm looking forward to more wealth sharing at some point with the other 1993
