The serial numbers start with 77. I’m not sure how long the wood was aged or when the trees cut down to build the 1977 issue guitars were planted. Not sure why I would even write about this, but in any case, I have two punk era ibanez acoustic guitars a 627 and a 645. So what you say? Well So What indeed. What I mean is, maybe secretly some famous guitarists use these same guitars in the studio and if it we know who these guitarists were and published on the web with photographs and interviews about them, The price would go through the roof. These guitars would be sought after. If JWD JAM releases some music, and lists the equipment used, The equipment referenced could allow others to dream of what possibilities might happen when they use a similar configuration of recording equipment, instrument and or life experience. If some one could channel JWDJAM and manifest the spirit of this potential effort, then that’s be something. Who knows where JWD Jam is going with the 1977s. These guitars were infants during the punk era, not that age matters, Most of the players probably used guitars from the 50’s during the 1970’s, So Id assume that these guitars turning 21 in 1998 were old enough to play bars buy that time. It’s likely these guitars remained in dusty closets rather than on the dance floors of raves during the late nineties. So in a sense, These guitars are the unwanted sons or daughters of an industry in a tailspin. They came of age during the napster hey day when recorded music became free. I’m convinced however that they are the next big thing, Whoopie you say. I say, Making Whoopie is a middle class 1977 term for sex. These guitars will annoy you, but mostly because the songs they play on took so many years to compile and it’s way after the facts. Who needs broken hearted records anymore? We’ll see about that baby.
