Here's a nice little video about the guitar that Peter Green used through his days with John Mayall's Bluesbreakers and then Fleetwood Mac, which he later swapped with Gary Moore. It's owned by an American collector but has been sent 'home' to England and is now being looked after by a gent who appreciates its place in musical history, someone who crossed paths with it a few times in the past and now can't believe how privileged he is. Some nice little tales from someone who was there.

I enjoyed it John and I thought others may find it interesting.
I'm honestly not normally given to guitar geekdom!

Wonder how much a guitar adds to an ace guitarist........
Some stick with the same old thing for years, others have multiples
Different approaches

I was lucky enough to see Gary Moore play live a couple of times. Wasn't into all of his music but he did some great stuff and his playing was exceptional - had quite a distinctive tone from his Les Paul as I remember ...

interesting comments on Gary Moore. I always thought, watching him play, that he thought he was the world's greatest guitarist. I have a YouTube clip with him playing with BB King and King's face as he watches Moore doing his guitar god impression is a picture.

He did some really good *music* as well as super fast twiddly guitar god
Dirty Fingers is awful, like an OTT parody of heavy metal with awful screamed vocals
A different beat
Back on the streets
Dark Days in paradise
