I don't know what happened to his guitars, but I must say that if I did, I sure wouldn't be in a hurry either to post this information on the internet or to send it in private email to a stranger. I mean no offense to you, Mr. Bossin, and I certainly don't know a thing about your motives, but there are just too many opportunists out there for comfort.
: From Dai Thomas' website:
: *Blind Gary Davis National Duolian then
: onto a Washburn and various Gibsons including
: J200s, B45-12s, Hummingbirds, a Southern
: Jumbo; also a Bozo 12-string and briefly, a
: 6-string. There are photos of him with a
: Yamaha dreadnaught, a Martin D-28 and a
: Gibson J-50.*
: The Nat Duolian was from his early pre-war
: recordings and by the end of his career he
: was playing Gibson J-200's ...referred to as
: 'Miss Gibson'
: Stefan Grossman over at the Woodshed may know
: what happened to his guitars after he passed
: on...GD's wife outlived him by a number of
: years...Ari, do you know anything about what
: happend to Davis' guitars?
