Members sxyryan Posted February 2, 2010 Members Share Posted February 2, 2010 is signed. Does anyone know who signed it? Sorry for huge picture, but this is the only one I can find that really shows the signatures. Look around the tailpiece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelSaulnier Posted February 2, 2010 Members Share Posted February 2, 2010 It's hard to make out the words... Looks like "of March" by the Trapese cover and "Family"? The swirls under the bridge look like someone was spinning the pen trying to make the ink start flowing... I could see this on a piece of paper, but on the top of the guitar? I bet that's not the only SG Derek has... M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members sxyryan Posted February 2, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 2, 2010 I know that was the guitar he played when I saw him over the summer, that's when I first noticed the signatures. In person it looks like it was refinished, too. Like the clear was put on with a brush almost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LPSlinger Posted February 2, 2010 Members Share Posted February 2, 2010 I think I read that he gets every musician he plays with that he respects to sign it. I'm sure they wear off because he plays the guitar and more signatures are added. I'd guess that there really is no way to know who's on it at any given time unless you see the guitar or ask Derek. The only thing I can read on that picture is "Family Man". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
