Location: Athens, GA & Gnashville | I was trying to remember what the MSRP was on the Deluxe I bought back in '67 or '68. I remember the prices went down when they came out with the painted bowls and the artist series.
I wonder what the original shiny GC went for, the few that were made? |

I was going to use "The Nocturnal Emmissions" as my band's name until I found out Chuck E Weiss had beaten me to it. Other potential names included "Trouser Snake" and "Touching Cloth" It could be just a Brit thing. |

There are fewer higher callings than putting cool guitars in the hands of aging men that might find more mundane uses for the cash. |
