Guitars, Past and Present

Here is a shot of Ira in 1969.  The guitar leaning up against him is a Gibson SG single pickup with inlaid mirrors (also shown below).  On the lawn is his Guild.  This is a guitar that he purchased from Leslie West and is the one he used at Woodstock.  Leslie used to play that guitar when he was in The Vagrants.

This photo taken in 1972 shows his 1958 Gibson Flying V and his 1948 Gibson SJ 200.

Here is a photo from 1972 of Ira with his Flying V.
