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)

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.
