Taylor LKSM Leo Kotke 12 String Signature Model Natural, 1993

On March 1, 2023 /

The Taylor LKSM – the Leo Kottke Signature Model – is now discontinued but is one of the best choices for fast, articulated 12-string guitar styles. Leo Kottke has been closely associated with the 12-string guitar for most of his career, and often played models by Bozo Podunovak, Gibson and Martin. Known for his fast, loud and well articulated playing, Kottke used both thumb and finger picks until the 1980s when tendonitis forced him to stop playing for several years.

❌SOLD❌ Gibson Sheryl Crow Southern Jumbo Sunburst, 2012

On May 2, 2020 /

The Gibson Sheryl Crow Southern Jumbo is based on the original 1942 version of the SJ, introduced as an upmarket version of the J-45 slope shouldered dreadnought. The Gibson Southern Jumbo or SJ is based very closely on the classic J-45, but with more decoration. It was launched with the J-45 in 1942, but marketed, as the name suggests, to musicians in the American South – south of the Mason-Dixon line. The key differences are in fingerboard binding and position markers.

❌SOLD❌ Gibson Gary Moore Les Paul Standard Honeyburst, 2000

On March 23, 2020 /

The Gibson Gary Moore Les Paul was built from 2000 to 2002 at Nashville, Tennessee and reflects but doesn’t copy Moore’s 1959 Burst originally used by Peter Green in Fleetwood Mac. Taking a regular Les Paul body and neck, the Gibson Gary Moore model does away with body and neck binding, and has a wiring or magnetic configuration that mimics the ‘out of phase’ tone on Peter Green’s Burst. Green felt that the pickup had been physically reversed, but in reality one of the pickup magnets may have been reversed as a manufacturing error.
