JB's 12 string guitar

Post by Crazy Navy Flyer »

Any guitar players out there know who makes that blue 12 string he's using on tour this summer? I noticed Mac has one also.

Looks just like an Agile 2500 but I'm sure it's much better than that.

I heard Jimmy say a couple times they got it from some guitar maker in Mississippi.

Then again, I heard him joke with Mac about getting his on ebay?? And he asked Mac where he got his...

During the interview with Steve before the Atlanta show Jimmy said the big news was their new twelve strings had arrived.

New Twelve Strings

Thanks to gbman...right click and save target as.

Jimmy talks about getting the guitars when he introduced Cowboy In The Jungle

New Guitars

After listening, I guess it sounds more like Jimmy was teasing about the guitars being made in a garage in Mississippi. :roll: :roll: :wink: :wench:

And those guitars don't look like the Paul Reed Smith blue guitar.

I posted some closeups of Jimmy's new guitar over in the Raleigh thread...

These were all taken by PHarmGirl.

Wonder why my camera does not work that nicely on the stills??

BTW, whatever happened to the Landshark guitar from Raleigh? I didn't see it in either MSG or Philly. Did that contest bite the dust already, like the idea of playing a couple of songs from a different album at each show a year or 2 ago?

DING DING DING DING!!! I believe we have a winner!!

This is a non-custom, but look at the shape and particularly the red emblem at the top of the head.

This one's a better example of shape, but you can't see the red emblem as well:

Thanks for the info, I've been on a mission to find the maker. Now if I could only afford one.
