  • Robbin Crosby black V?

    Anyone got a good pic of the black V with rounded Gibson-type body that Robbin played in the Round and Round video? Anybody know where this guitar wound up?

      <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yeah, the white one is J0001. That's the first one in the Gallery, also owned by Dave.

        J0001 is the white pointy V that Jay Reynolds of Malice played.............. I think. Is that right?

          What's with the vintage trem cover plate? It has a Floyd. Was it converted?

          And are the EMGs mods, too? Kind of early for them, wouldn't it be? I can't remember if they were there at the time of the RnR the video. [img]graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]

            not sure about the plate, but when robbin sold his guitars, he'd yank the pickups from them.

              <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I think you're right. I seem to remember a story that KK never took possession of the guitar and someone else got it.

                Toe,

                That is J0005. It is owned by Dave. Curt can shed more light on this guitar than I can.

                  J0001 was built for Kenny (KK) Downing, but he never took delivery of it. I believe that he (and Glen Tipton) secured the Hamer endorsement right around the same time. So no need for Jackson to give him a guitar, since he had his own signature Hamer V. So Jay Reynolds from Malice got it, and probably had to pay for it!
