Wayne, these black ones pre-date the brown gig bags. I don't recall mine having such a big outer pocket. But man, it was a long time ago.

Curious about the guitar, did you relocate the volume pot from the pickguard to the body or was that already done. In the original photos I see it's on the pick guard just like the JR guitar.

Hey, nice job bring it back to life. Looks sweet.

Dave;

No, the tone/volume had already been rearranged and the new guard (without the volume pot hole and with the GC signature instead of Glen's name in the generic script) were already done, sometime between the time the original pic was taken and the time it was stored away.

I'm assuming Glen or whomever didn't like the volume knob on the PG and Jim R had it back to make the changes and that's as far as it got. That's just a guess... we'll never know for sure.

Wayne, I'm not sure what hosting you are using to post the pictures but you're doing a great job. Perhaps you may still have a picture I sent you of the "Engineering" SN list number list showing the X009 and X008 listings
Just additional and interesting info to add to this topic.
I'm glad we also confirmed the origins of the hand writing on the hang tag of one of you other collectible guitars.

Tal;

 

It is a PDF file so I can't post the image but I can post a link to it.

It actually doesn't list X008 and X009 but does mention X010 and X011 which were a pair of 1623 guitars also built for Glen and Jerry.

X010 is the Barcus Berry equiped guitar, and listed as such, that I now own. It doesn't say that X011 has a BB pickup... more than likely it was Baldwin equipped but who knows what it is unless it turns up somewhere.

There are a number of other interesting guitars listed on this as well.

Tal, if you could dig any other of these sheets up, I'd be glad to post them.

Oop, I was going from memory. I guess didn't remember which one of your GC models matched an entry into that logbook.
