Robben Ford Discussion

I remember Robben saying something that made me think Larry loaned him the guitar rather than gave it to him. Am I imagining that?

Hopefully...that guitar was absolutely gorgeous (coming from a vintage gear junkie...) and it sang like you wouldn't believe.

IIRC Robben says on the new DVD that he gave it back to Larry. He discusses the lack of a coil tap (obviously) on that guitar.

IIRC = If I Remember Correctly

I was thinking of the Art of Blues Rhythm DVD and I obviously DON'T remember correctly because he plays Larry's LP on it! I'm sure he refers to it as Larry's though and to the lack of coil taps Embarassed

Look, if Robben doesn't want the 57 LP, I'll be happy to give it a nice home. (By the way, there's a nice photo on Travis Carlton's MySpace page with Robben and Larry both holding the LP GT and grinning like two 9-year-old boys who'd just landed a 7-pound trout.)
