There has been some blurb about this, Dutchbopper i think posted sometime ago you can see Barney play this guitar on a YT Mezzo 70's video, superb playing the guitar sounds great, i mentioned some years back i thought it was a Super 58 pup as in early AS200's JP20 etc

Hey that looks pretty good!

Nice video! a friend lent it to me nearly twenty years ago! It was Barney Kessel in trio, recorded in Switzerland. You can see it on Ebay :
He was playing a Barney Kessel Ibanez prototype (more or less based on the FG100) that never went into production.
His son Dan sold it around 2010

Great video! I really dig the close-ups of his left hand mastery.
Back in the 70's Ibanez was actively pursuing artists of all genres to endorse. Apparently Barney didn't bite.
However, Ibanez did build a copy of Kessel's double-cutaway (Ibanez 2356) during their so-called lawsuit era.

Really like that double Florentine cut on a hollow body. Very sexy.
