  • UPDATE: We’ve now learned that the actual serial number is 88779
    CALLING ALL GUITARISTS! Robby Krieger is hoping you can help him find his first guitar! Robby’s iconic red Gibson SG Special was the guitar he used to audition for The Doors, to write “Light My Fire,” and to record the first two Doors albums.
    Tragically, it went missing many years ago. But hopefully you can help! If you have a ’63 or ’64 Gibson SG Special, check the back of the neck for serial number 88779. You might have Robby’s guitar!
    If you find it, and it can be authenticated, we will buy the guitar from you, and will also give you an exclusive hand-signed Gibson SG hand-painted by Robby Krieger, along with an autographed copy of his new book, SET THE NIGHT ON FIRE.
    Think you’ve got the guitar? Email us at: FindRobbysGuitar@gmail.com

    *******************
    The Doors channel is the official UA-cam home of classic Doors live performances, The Doors albums, and contemporary performances and content honoring The Doors featuring John Densmore and Robby Krieger.
    With an intoxicating, genre-blending sound, provocative and uncompromising songs, and the mesmerizing power of singer Jim Morrison’s poetry and presence, The Doors had a transformative impact not only on popular music but on popular culture.
    The Doors’ arrival on the rock scene in 1967 marked not only the start of a string of hit singles and albums that would become classics, but also of something much bigger - a new and deeper relationship between creators and audience. Refusing to be mere entertainers, the Los Angeles quartet relentlessly challenged, confronted and inspired their fans, leaping headfirst into the heart of darkness while other bands warbled about peace and love. Though they’ve had scores of imitators, there’s never been another band quite like them.

    It's a special relationship with history for a man and his instrument. I hope it finds it's way back home. Noone can appreciate that guitar as much for what it's meant to the legendary songs it's composed.

    I think Paul McCartney finding his original Hofner bass has inspired some pro musicians from the 1960's to not give up on finding their lost instruments. It's worth a shot and as a huge fan of the Doors, I hope Mr Krieger finds that first Gibson SG.

    Let's all meditate and ask the Universe as I did this many years ago when Jim's Spiritual Portrait painted in London was missing from a friend's farmhouse attic in Scotland for 17 years. It turned up the same week as she suddenly remembered she had taken it to London to show a Jim lookalike at the London College of Art and left it in her room so I got it back the following week... It's great you have the serial numbers... Never say never ever! So let's ALL ask the Universe to bring this special guitar back. I am crippled with arthritis but got a new guitar to be tuned up as I cant even remember how to tune it and will plonk away with your chords teaching best I can for some of The Doors stuff. Bon Chance! Now everyone get looking all the shops and all the guitar players even amateurs like myself. Can't believe this guitar went missing but life is strange. Stay safe as is possible. I read in a book The Doors were headed for The Moonscape at London Science Museum where I had my publicity pictures taken in 1984/ 1986 then decided the music field wasn't for me. I presume there's adverts or flyers online about this as this is what makes it easier to reach the masses. BEST OF LUCK!

    I had a so called friend I knew for 15 years steal 3 guitars and 2 pedals and 2 amps. Gear most would not be much into because of dialing issues. But yeah it is a wound. One pedal was a gift from my father just before he died. I hope Robby gets help for this. This kind of wound is spiritually painful.

    Its definitely a possibility, to find a guitar I remember a few years back , think it was in London, someone bought a flying v guitar that had been hand painted pretty badly, the guy decided to restore it because he got it quite cheap, on removing the layer of paint he found it had been painted before with a psychedelic montage , he took it to an expert who checked it out for him , he said congratulations you have bought a lost jimi hendrix guitar by accident, it was auctioned for 250.000 pounds ...

    Dear Robbie, first I want to say thank you for the music you and the other 3 Doors created that have got me and many others through tough times. I hope you find the guitar you're remembering in the video but PLEASE be careful there's a lot of sad morons who might try to con you. I think it's not impossible to find it.
    In fact, the story and adventure of how you and others (?) found the guitar would make a fantastic documentary for UA-cam or a proper film. Looking back on how you used it in the 60s and of what roadhouse blues you went through to find it again?
    I hope 1000% you find it and when you do you make new music. All my love and respect,
    David Aston. A unknown soldier riding the storm and loving life sober x
