"A previous owner “modified” the guitar for left-handed playing by making a cutaway on the guitar’s upper bass bout." Fuckin' left-hander.

Bob Marley's Gibson Les Paul
I think a case could be made for both Keith Richard's Fender Telecaster, "Micawber" and Bruce Springsteen's Fender Esquire/Telecaster mash-up as being pretty darn significant.

Yeah man, when I saw Festival Express I did not make the connection.
Two degrees of separation between Garcia and Harrison? Maybe they met when George made his ill fated pilgrimage to the Haight.
Delaney and Bonnie would be in the RRHOF if that joint had any cred at all.
