Here's a pic taken 1987 at Friar Park. That's Duane Eddy playing what's actually John's Gibby 160E. If you look on the wall to the left, you'll see what looks like a 1615-4 12, and most likely a Legend series next to it. Wonder if these were a gift from Jeff (Lynne)?

Very cool. Lotta real nice guitars on that wall.

I saw some footage involving the Traveling Wilburys recording their first album. Lots of home movies of playing and recording of the house they rented. A 1615-4 was in the mix in places. I wonder if this is the same guitar. It's right about the same year.

th'Parlors were built by Zemaitis.
George owned a bunch of Zemaitis guitars.

Yep, Zematis! Anybody notice that blonde (stripped) double cutaway on the floor? That's his Epi Casino!!!!! Used on a ton of Beatles recordings and concerts.
