    I went to see him in the early 90's in New York when he was playing in the cellar at Fat Tuesday's. Fantastic. And being a gracious and nice man, he spent time with every and any one who wanted to speak to him or get autographs after the show.

    This truly is a sad day, and not just in music history.

    Say hello to Mary for us, Les.
    There's a lot to be said for nowhere...

    Good find.

    Humorous that they talk about how Pete Townsend played one, and as they're zooming in on the photo to show the guitar, Pete's holding a Strat.

    They also say that a 55 sold for $45.000 at auction in 2007 or something, when the 1958-1960's regularly sell for $200.000 or more.
