Keith Richards -> Buddy Guy Black Starfire Located?

[jthrel]

I was visiting the Buddy Guy Legends music/bar venue in Chicago and discovered a black Starfire on the wall labelled "Keith Richards". Got a lousy cell phone picture under the worst of lighting conditions - but me-thinks this is the Starfire given to Buddy Guy by Keith Richards in the course of filming Shine A Light.

This guitar is discussed in other threads on this board. http://letstalkguild.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=7313

If there are better pictures, please post.

Here are some screen captures from the 2008 Martin Scorsese film "Shine a Light". Buddy Guy performed the song Champagne and Reefer with The Rolling Stones. Keith Richards played a black Guild Starfire which he gave to Buddy at the end of the song.

Just as an image I find it kind of intriguing so thanks for posting it. In spite of the quality Guildiness of the guitar is apparent :wink:

Kind of a French Impressionism meets Guild Starfire........

Monet painted several variations of the Waterloo Bridge during a stay in London.
This lesser know version is titled
Starfire Rise over Waterloo Bridge with Fog

:shock:

Oh, Photoshop is a dangerous tool in the hands of the deranged and the silly...... Al
