bullet, when I saw that black 77 my jaw was on the floor. It's the year I was born too. My girlfriend and I just stopped in this shop (Chicago Music Exchange) which is nothing but vintage guitars, electric and acoustic, old amps, etc. The guys are jerks in there, very snobby, but it's because they are located right by Wrigley Field here in Chicago, lots of non-guitar players coming in to browse, and lots of rich north-suburban men who couldn't play a G chord coming in as "collectors" and dropping tons of money on vintage guitars to hang on a wall. Sad!
But being left handed as I am, and seeing my happiness in that guitar, they were rather nice to me. No way could I have come up with $3,000 for that guitar, but talked about it all day with my girlfriend.
