Glenn Tipton strat

[MetalHeadMat]

I'll tell you why Glen never got a signature strat. He isn't known for playing one.
Same reason Eric Clapton doesn't have a signature SG. Uli Jon Roth doesn't have a signature strat either. Most people know him for his sky guitar.
BTW... Glen Tipton pulled off some of the greatest metal guitar licks of all time. Love the guy.

In 5 words...

BEYOND THE REALMS OF DEATH

Eric has/had some sort of signature Gibson though. I certain it wasn't an SG, or I'm half certain it wasn't, but it's up to him what his signature should be imo.

I've seen him with the Phantom GT more than any other guitar.

I mainly remember Glen for his SG back in the old days. Then it was that crazy Hamer.

Going way, way back, Glen played the SG and fender strat a bit, both with the mirrored pick guards I think. Then the hamers took over eventually.

YEP, both black with chrome/mirror pickguards.

Same here.

Not really on-topic but here goes.

I have a beat-to-hell Phantom A5.
Favored by Andy Summers, predecessor to the GT, and the Steve Stephens variations.
Cool guitar but the neck is a little too chunky for my taste.

I'm sure I'll grow into it!
