Ok...so there I was laying in the hospital, shopping in my mind for all of the things I'd buy when I got out and got the chance. I'd previously seen a picture of Jimmy Page on the Gibson webiste with a black EDS
1275...that's a 6/12 string double neck for the non-strummers out there. Thought came to me that MAYBE, someday down the road, if I lost ALL my sense, I'd call up the Gibson custom shop and have them bulid me one...seeing as they only come in red and white...SO...here I am in Chi-town, recovering and shopping. Getting ready to leave the local Sam Ash store empty handed, when my Ma spots...a black and gold Gibson double neck...played it...HAD to buy it. I've only ever seen TWO black EDS 1275s in my life - Page's, and MINE. Mine is a '94 - Gibson's 100th Aniversary year - and whoever had it didn't touch it...it's never even been set up, and there isn't a mark on it. Had the serial number verified by Gibson...it's bona fide...I'm satisfied.
