No kidding! 30 years ago you could find them used for pretty decent prices, but even then, I still couldn’t afford it! :) I lucked out on a few of these and paid what I considered a very reasonable price considering the great condition of these three vintage ones. Nothing better than playing a brand new 60+ year old guitar!

My former March '67 330 was a joy to play. :)

Jeff, what a knockout guitar! I bet you wish you had it back.

Sometimes I do. but I sold off all my electric guitar gear as I just play my acoustics, these days (except for bass).

Oo la la, Mike! Another breath-taking fireglo moment by the hearth. Thanks for making my Friday and that of many others here. :)

A bit late to the party... Here's my contribution to the FireGlo Friday collection, but it's AmberFireGlo, so hopefully that counts...

I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

Given it had to travel halfway around the world to get here, that looks good to me. :D
