ZZ Top's First Album

Re: ZZ Top's First Album

I really hope that my wife catches the hints that I've been giving her for my birthday present. Can't afford a real '59 or RI, but I sure love looking at Pearly!

I have not memorized the book...yet!

TGB...one very cool thing about this book, is that Billy plays it straight...there seems to be no tall tales in this book...he does however mention the Expandoras and the 2x12 Crates!

Re: ZZ Top's First Album

save, save, and save some more and get a 58 reissue...best decision I've made in a long time was to not settle for an Epi or even a high quality clone (Tokai, Edwards, etc)...the 58's can be had for 2k or more less than a 59! The 59 reissues are cool but I don't care for the much taller frets...the 58 have slightly smaller frets that a 59 plus you don't have to shell out for a flame top!

That said...Pearly sure is a looker!

Very reliable source has it that a Pearly Gates LP is very close to being unveiled ala the Page, Rossington, Duane, etc.

Man my wife is going to freak when she finds out why we're getting a re-fi:jester:

Damn...there is NO WAY I would shell out the amount of cash that would cost but it would be nice!
