The Gibson you're refering to is called an "RD Custom" made in the 
late 70's for a few years. I beleave he now has two. one a light wood 
finish, the other a dard wood finish. He has had the dark one for 
atleast 3 years, and the new one for mabey one year. I've tried to 
research this guitar before as I find it very interesting but I can't 
find ant info on them. I talked to a guy who playes for Squirl who 
has one and he knew nothing except where he got it. I also know there 
is one in harry's general store(unless it's been bought by joel in 
the last 8 months for $800. He dosen't know anything 
about it eather.
