For all the Dave Gilmour stalkers ;)
« on: December 11, 2007, 09:21:42 PM »
I found this the other day, and am considering buying a copy (I'm such a stalker), I did a search and didn't find any mention of it so.

http://www.theblackstrat.com/The_Black_Strat-home...html

The Blurb says this :
The Black Strat book tells the official chronological story of Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour’s favourite legendary Black Stratocaster from 1970 to the present.

Written by Phil Taylor - David’s personal guitar technician and the band’s chief backline tech since 1974 - the only person to know Pink Floyd’s equipment better than the band themselves.

Outrageously expensive with the exchange rate, but .... WOW, looks like a top book!

Thats why it's for stalkers

Badgermark : I have a totally unreasionable desire for a double bound black Tele

TO: yeah expensive, but apart from (perhaps) Syd Battetts fender Esquire, I have spent more time listening to that guitar than any other one in existance. That includes my own ones.
Goodbye London !

I finally managed to get seeing a decent colour picture of Barretts mirror disc Esquire. Hmmm another reason for a Tele <sigh>
