It's been a good week: Gas is cheap, Christmas is near....oh yeah, and I fulfilled a decade-old search!
When I was a kid, my dad had this poster hanging in his office:
After I started playing guitar, like many others, I was naturally attracted to the 'oorible 'oo, and lusted after the strange guitar in Townshend's hands (along with the requisite RM1993 of course)......learned about Rics, about RoMo's.....etc etc....bought a Reissue, loved it, played it, sold it...figuring I could never get my hands on the real deal.
Until......
Today!
1964 Rose Morris 1998 Model- Ser# DE598 made in May 1964. Sourced from the Midlands (UK)
I just strung it up and played it. Sounds amazing, and certainly feels vintage
(well, the multitude of battle scars and wear will certainly attest to that...).
Needless to say, I'm a pretty happy dude today. Guess Christmas came early.
PS.....the TRC pictured is borrowed from another guitar for pics. It has no TRC, so if anybody has a spare 60s TRC (six string), or knows where I can find one, please advise! I have to get this RM representing!
Congrats.Oh and BTW yer grass needs cut!
