Have you ever wondered how history might have happened differently if there had been a band endorsing the Celebrity models? Yeah, me too!

There's some editing for ya. Wow. History would be different had The Beatles played Celebrities, You'd probably see them here and there like Rickenbacker guitars are these days. That red Celebrity that John is playing sure is purdy, Does it have butter colored binding too? I love red guitars with butter binding.

Did you notice the Gibson headstock on the one ship and the Celebrity fretboard, pickups, and tremelo in the first ship?

Hey, Sarah!

Very nice! I did not notice the Gibson headstock until you mentioned it, but I noticed the other elements.

It's like the arrow in the FedEx logo. I bet only two people in ten are aware that it is there, big and bold.

Sometimes things are seen but they don't register. Bane of my professional existence.
