forgive me if this has been threaded before but it seems Pete Townsend gave Ed one of his famous numbered guitars..
I thought he may have "borrowed it" ..
I saw this in some clips from the European 2007 tour but here it is again in Hartford 2008...!

nice! notice the guitar neck is longer than Ed normally uses too!

    I don't think that LP is any longer than what he was using before.

    I'm pretty sure that is the guitar he was playing when he performed Gone for that live AOL studio before the album "Pearl Jam" came out.

    he's had it for ages
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    I saw the #5 at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2003. It is owned by a private collector.

    I love #4, I LOVE IT when Pete plays the acoustic guitar

    it's got to be the sounds of heaven, because that is what it is to me
    Don't come closer or I'll have to go
