So do some of us old farts. You know what? Maybe it's the sound. The flames do look very cool, but that guitar has a very distinct sound to it. Deeper voice than most of my other "O's". |

Not to be argumentative, but I think you have it backwards. It appeared to me that Motley Crue had an influence on Glen Campbell's later work. I'm using the mug shot as a point of reference. |

Would love to have one of these ... with an ebony fretboard and no inlays. |

Somebody ought to make a movie "The Hatfields & the McCoys" starring Glen Campbell and Nick Nolte
Could be a part in that for Courtney Love, too.
