The Return of the Guild!
Kind of a big deal at Ardmore Music Hall on Friday night when Tommy Conwell brought out the 1969 Guild X500.
For those who aren’t up to speed on the history and legacy of this guitar to Tommy Conwell and the Young Rumblers, here are a few articles to catch you up.
- Rolling Stone Magazine – October 1988 – Introduction to Tommy’s autographed guitar.
- The guitar was stolen when the Young Rumblers were on tour in 1990, but eventually recovered.
- My mini-short documentary on when Stevie Ray Vaughan signed Tommy’s guitar and the history behind the signatures.
