Marketing Music History!

Scott, you are correct. The offer a year ago was from a Japanese collector. It was genuine and verified. It has been a while since I've shot any color and the last time was Velvia. I'm thinking Astia, Provia of Kodak VS. The guitar has great vintage stains from all of the bars. The wood is natural Ash and it is visually a fantastic piece to see. I've been given the ok for the color shoot after the holidays, just have to decide on film.

You have the camera set up, the composition made, throw a couple sheets of color and a couple of B&W in....you won't get the opportunity back..EC

the Dallas Guitar Show is not the NAMM show. It is a private enterprise that is owned by the guy that used to own Charlie's Guitars in Dallas, TX. His name is Mark Pollock. One of my best friends uses Mark as a business manager these days and he has moved to Alpine, TX and opened new store called Trans-Pecos Guitars, I think. Here is my friends website. www.stevensguitars.com

Lee, thanks for the info and the link. My friend showed me a picture from a Dallas guitar show that was sometime in October I think. I didn't get the link info. Thanks again.

Jim,

I am in the San Fernando Valley and if you need someone discreet to assist I will probably be available. PM me if interested. As far as labs, The Darkroom in Northridge does all their processing on-site and seem to be pretty nice folks - perhaps you could arrange with them to be present for the developing so you can be sure no 'extra' copies of the picture get made?

Joe, thanks I appreciate the info.

Consider getting someone to hand-tint the black and white to give it a vintage look.

Bruce, thanks for the idea. i had not thought of that.
