Grateful Dead Music Forum

Still never heard a good reason why the two bands never did a show together.... Man that would be enough for me for a life time, but anyway here is a Gilmore Goodie for those that want to bid.... I got to play one and it is WELL WORTH it if you like strat's and Dave's tone. I was bidding on it till it got out of my reach financially....Its an authentic Fender custom shop ....

Gotta love the Black Strat. I am pretty sure he painted it black himself way back in the day

I would think so too, I am pretty sure Dave's tech wrote a 500 page novel about the guitar, leave it to the Brittish to not be at a loss for words about a guitar...I think River Rat may know a little more about it too.....

I guess it went for $1900 in the end... Did anyone here try for it?

Interestingly, the XLR was part of Gilmour's attempt to create his own version of an OBEL. It didn't work quite as well for him.

Check out gilmourish.com. Cool site, but you won't believe the fanatics who get into every little detail of his sound.

Agreed! Totally absurd over there at the Gilmour forum.

Those bozos are completely obsessed with David's gear, his pickups, his amps, his pedals, his pickups, everything. It's just plain silly.

Dude, Jerry has been copying my sound since I was 12 years old.
