I was a little surprised when I looked on here, as a long term (from the beginning!) Mac and Greeny fan, not to spot any threads about Peter's guitars....so I thought I'd start one...
I guess if you're looking here, you have a certain level of awareness..
WELL, £2,000,000 is a little bit too much to pay for a guitar, even a 59er, as is Peter's/Gary Moore's....if you DON'T know about this, check out Maverick Music in New York, through Google, and you'll see what I mean...
But did you also know that the 1952 goldtop with 2 P90s and a long tailpiece was up for sale recently, and DID NOT SELL, at £15,000, which was a steal! Mind you it had a seventies neck put on it at one time (well, in the seventies....) as the original got damaged, which is a shame really cos Peter was given the guitar by Eric Clapton who had himself been given it by Muddy Waters who in turn had been given it by BB King.....WHAT?!!!!
Further to that, I have owned for some time a recent ebony Les Paul Standard which Peter gave away....
A friend who I met has a Matamp PGT Peter Green Tribute amp which apparently there are only 3 of...and I am told it is a pearl.
Anyway, lets have some more news from some of you!
