I He also has a black prototype with a silver top configured more like a tele but with a p90 “phat cat” type humbucker in the neck and a single cool in the bridge. Wish that one would have made it to production.

Ok ...I did not catch that song at the 3 shows I went to.
Love that guitar. No so much the song.
It's not a terrible song but there was a time when it was played a lot.
considering Let It Loose has never been played...just saying.

I haven’t seen him play the silver top one in a while. He has had A few z’s in the late 70s that we’re stolen. One was his pearl front that he played in the black and blue promo videos.
The only original Z that I have seen him play on recent years is the triple humbucker disc front that he plays on you got me rocking.
He does have a couple newer ones from the Zemaitis/Greco company in japan. One is a black triple single coil guitar that is was at the exhibition show I saw In Nashville. He also has a black prototype with a silver top configured more like a tele but with a p90 “phat cat” type humbucker in the neck and a single cool in the bridge. Wish that one would have made it to production.

I get it during the VL tour but it seemed to stick around after that tour as well. Played at Roseland 2002. Slave and Let it Loose still have not been played live. Just saying!...

Then it must have been made 1971 or prior. Wikipedia says Ron appeared with the guitar on Top of the Pops in '71. When knowing Tony Zemaitis started experimenting on guitars with metal tops in 1970, and Wikipedia also says that Tonys second guitar was made for Ronnie... I guess we're now in the ballpark.Quote

I would guess 1971, as Ronnie still was playing the Dan Armstrong for the songs in open tuning on the BBC-show earlier that year.
