The site says "If you require higher resolution images, specific documentation or specific photography requests do not hesitate to contact us here at Rare Star Guitars." Why would someone "require" this unless they were contemplating the purchase? I don't understand. Is this just SPAM maybe? | ||

Always manage to get 'someones back up, just generally posting images for fans who appreciate these guitars. | ||

I think we all like to look at special guitars. At first I thought they were up for sale. Maybe we just needed a little more information on your first OFC post. Welcome!! | ||

Joined: March 2002 Posts: 14842 Location: NJ | For my last birthday, Jeanette gave me a DVD of a recent concert of his (Yusuf). Included on the DVD was a documentary/interview with him. First time I'd ever really heard him "speak" (especially at any "length"). Quite interesting. Dispelled a lot of the pre-conceived "whack-job" notions I've (as a lot of other Americans've) had about him . . . The concert was pretty good, too . . . Mix of his old stuff and from his last album (tho, it seemed t'slightly lack some of the "energy/passion" of old). | ||

And it doesn't look like Slash toured it for a few years - his guitar tech must be the best if he managed to keep it looking like that. | ||
