That is the holy grail or ES guitars as far as I’m concerned 😍 Wish Gibson would do a Murphy Labs reissue as many of us would love to own one of these but are not collectors and don’t have that kind of money laying around 😂
I while back I played with a guitarist who acquired one of Freddie's actual Gibsons. It was long term lent to him by a rich collector who didn't play himself. After a couple of years on loan the collector lost all of his money at the casino, so was selling everything to feed his gambling habit. Eventually he called the musician asking for his guitar back for a fast sale, but by this time he had fallen in love with the guitar, and losing it would be like losing a limb...So he moved continents and took the guitar with him.. His last couple of albums have him posing with that same guitar. To be fair he's a thief, but he's a great player & musically worthy of that guitars heritage. So I'm morally torn.
This man LOVES. HIS. JOB. I know next to nothing about guitars, but I recognize expertise and enthusiasm when I see it. Keep it up TVG!
bro barely said anything about the guitar. he was just yapping for 8 mins straight.
VERY. VERY. VERY Nice. Classic Guitar. Yes Sir. Freddie was AMAZING. Excellent Video.

my favorite of the 3 kings: Otis Rush
Lol
Freddie was from Texas
He was a Texas bluesman, not Chicago.
You are right but in addition, he was in Chicago before he became famous
Nice - but not worth 47k
I would say, 47k are a fair price!
Y will not find a better one for less 👍
No offense but it should be illegal to make a guitar video and not play it.
