>> That somethig wrong here, super SHIDOOB said that Keith's guitar was burned in th Redlands fire,
but that's wrong (Redlands burded in 1971-72) Keith played with this guitar in 1975 and 1976....! <<
umm ... i don't know who you're quoting here, but: the fire that Keith's original Macabre was supposedly destroyed in was in Los Angeles,
just after the 78 tour. (Keith had that guitar on the 78 tour as well, not just 75/76).
the incorrect notion that Macabre was destroyed in a fire at Redlands has spread from a website that has a replica of the guitar for sale.
there's been more than one fire at Redlands ("the joint's combustible!") but the big one was in 1973;
Keith didn't even own that guitar then. anyway it seems that in fact the guitar wasn't destroyed at all, but was stolen,
perhaps when the Stones were in New York for the 1978 Saturday Night Live shoot.
most of those details are also in the thread on shidoobee that i posted the link to, if you read through it ...
