Hi Here at the bottom is the link to the full story about Buddy Holly and his early Gibson Guitar, it was rebuilt years ago and it was re fretted, all the frets were kept and sold in 2009 to the Buddy Holly Foundation, who are having 21 copys made each having one fret from his Guitar..............I think I'm right in Saying Zoe McCullock has been chosen for one, and also Mike Berry.............. :D

was reading this recently following Zoe's posts on facebook, looks like the guitars are exact replicas of Buddys original with one original fret fitted to each guitar. The guitars are on loan to artistes who will use them to raise money for the foundation. From what i understand Bruce Welch is having one and Hank has been approached about having one.
