I've seen worse jackets.

You haven't really though, have you?

The jackets are absolutely NOT the worst thing about that picture.

Leather sandals.

Absolutely ruins a strong look.

More, or less than white hot pants?

Crikey - I forgot this! Steve Hillage and the Strat that first made me want a Strat. Not the white outfit though.

There's a MJT copy of this in the classifieds (not the jacket)

Moving swiftly on from the embarrassingly tight trousers...

This is my favourite guitar, despite having the ugliest headstock in christendom, and a single jazz style pickup that would be 100% useless to me. It's the shape of the body that gets to me, its curvature, thin-ness when viewed from an angle, and the antique violin-like colour. I once saw a guy on YouTube playing a 60's version that was even classier but I can't relocate it - this is the closest I could find

Ditto - & I'd love his Strat too!

2010 Gibson custom shop R5 refin' (replica of a '55 gold top sent back to be refinished as a 'burst') note the offset seam as was often the case with gold tops as didn't matter if top matched when painted gold) - unique sloping shoulder neck http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j53/darrenbond/158CB7D3-E83F-4E0E-984E-56E2630C8B4E_zpszzkgpjos.jpg

I have lusted over this guitar for over 25 years and have never come close to owning it.
It's an early '90's koa top Steinberger GM4T. There are a couple in the US in good shape but financially impossible.
