I would ask for my Zum D10 that Bruce built for me in 1995.

My Red Benedetto Bambino that I sold.

My Ome banjo golden monarch that I sold.

Ooooh, this is a tough one. Maybe...

A Gretsch Duo Jet similar to Cliff Gallup's with the Dynasonics.

A Jumbo Gibson from the 60s... either a Dove or a Hummingbird.

And probably a 3-pickup SG in Walnut. I'd love something loaded with Super Distortions.

Good question.

Top of my list would be my Gibson Super 400 - a 1958 CES, serial #A-28256. I should never have parted with it, not even when I sold it briefly in the '60s and certainly not once I'd got it back! I assume it's still in the Hard Rock's inventory.



(I know there are better archtops, but none would have the sentimental value of my one. And no, I probably still wouldn't play it before I picked up a Tele.)

Second: I'd like ANY of the Everly Brothers' J-200s; one of the all-black ones, the grey ones, or the black with white 'guards. Albert has Don's - Phil's black-with-white is still in his family's possession.

Third: This is hard.

A) Any prewar Martin 000-45 (14-fret version)

Or:

B) A brand new Emmons Resound, 9+9, black with a red belly. I can't get sentimental about old steels, but these new ones are works of art!

I know that's a sneaky 'four'. Sorry.

Dave Mudgett already asked for Mike Bloomfield's Sunburst Les Paul so...
Earl Hooker's Gibson double neck
George Pritchett's custom ordered thin line Blonde Epiphone Emperor with a single Christian pickup
Bill Jennings' Gretsch Electromatic with the double pick guard customization because he was left-handed

But I know who has the double neck, it's not for sale or playable either. The Pritchett guitar belongs to a family member, and the Jennings guitar has never surfaced, so being realistic...

Peerless Guitar Research Eddie Durham JX17N Natural (I have two sunbursts)
Peerless Guitar Research Eddie Durham JX16G gold double pickup
