Newspaper Guitar

[Apache1]

Can anyone tell me anything about the Guitar that Hank was given by the Newspaper "The Scotsman"
He only used it on one number "Cmon Everybody" but it certainly has a different sound to the rest of his Strats.
just wondered if there was anything special about it ? and are there any close up photos of it.

If you search through the previous posts on here, this has been well documented. It should not be more than a couple of pages back. Possibly under guitars and amps, but try general first.

Is our lead guitarist going to turn up at Saturday's rehearsal with a new guitar...

In which case, I feel obliged to get to work with some old copies of The Herald and a pot of cow gum.

As far as I know, three such guitars were made as part of a promotional operation for this newspaper, and one was given to Hank.
I guess he had to show it at least once...
