Gibson Pat Martino Custom

I made a minor edit - forgot to add the word Gothic to one of them.
They are not commonplace at all - most of these are limited production models that have come and gone or will come and go.
Most have solid ebony boards.
At least a couple are worth seeking out as really cool instruments, IMO.
Not targeted at the jazz crowd, heh.

That is gorgeous Zirenius. If you don't mind the suggestion, I'd recommend a fine leather strap to replace the nylon.

Yours appears to be darker than this one.

(Love me some Pat...!)

Here is a nicer video of the guitar

Your guitar looks great. Are you using Martino's string gauges?!

Looks great this dark brown nuance, really really nice!
Happy Ngd!

Ah, okay, that might explain my lack of knowledge there.

Did not know about the SG Baritone at all actually. Interesting...

@Gertrude Moser: I thought about it already, but that Mono strap is actually REALLY comfortable... so yeah, that might have to wait a bit!

@AlsoRan: Yeah, it is the darkest shade I have come across so far. But: I like it a lot better than the regular caramel brown!

@Rob: Actually - no. The guitar is currently strung with a set of Elixir Roundwounds (11's) and set up with a very low action. But as I said, I am not even after Martino's sound with this guitar. :-)
