This 62 year old guitar is completely original and was previously owned  and played by the former Whitesnake guitarist Bernie Marsden. Included are many points of interest, such as Bernie's BA flight tag to Geneva marked ZZ Top July 2012, a guitar pick embossed with Bernie's name and a string winder. The original rigid fibreboard case bearing the lid stencilled with 'Bernie M', also carries a gig tag attached to the handle marked Gov't Mule. Bernie played with Gov't Mule on many occasions. Authentication is completed with a hand signed note by Bernie Marsden. The case lining still contains some old tobacco remnants, who know what was being smoked, but it remains for posterity.  What also makes this guitar special is a combination of the Gibson made Seth Lover designed mini-humbucker pickups, used only on this model and the Bigsby vibrato.
