JS Legend - 057
In the early 90s session hero, Jim Sullivan, worked with Patrick Eggle Guitars to produce a signature model to his specification. These conversations resulted in the limited production of 150 guitars known as the JS Legend. This model is perhaps the most illusive and sort after of all the guitars that the company made. This example is no. 57 as indicated by the inlay at the 24th fret. Another interesting feature of this guitar are the initials "GG" also at the 24th fret - a special order by the original owner, Gerry Gillard.
Specification:
Body - maple with 2 piece 4A maple top
Neck - flamed maple set neck with 24 jumbo frets on an ebony fingerboard with falling leaf inlays
