Joe Bonamassa Gibson Les Paul signature guitar interview

Joe tells fans during a meet 'n greet why he wanted his signature model Gibson Les Paul to come with a relic/factory-worn finish -- so people will take them out & play them, instead of keeping them in their cases!

Recorded in the lobby of the Missouri Theatre in Columbia, Missouri, a few hours before Joe took the stage with his band.

The one with the Ernie Ball strap attached is his own guitar (Serial #001); the one he's playing at the beginning of the video is one of his signature models owned by the guy standing to my right.

@RustyPease I seriously doubt it in his case - I helped shop for his hospitality; he's VERY conscious of what he eats - all health food.

@JmAA7192 He looks good.

i like the way he jsut passes his own les paul around.... i don't know if there is another guitar player who would do such a thing ^^

@JmAA7192 i bet he doesn't eat cause he's to busy playing that beauty or its just so heavy its a workout every time he picks it up. :P
