Lacquer, stainless steel strings and translucent acrylic wings on a SG standard Gibson Electric Guitar. Mahogany neck and body, rosewood fingerboard, humbucking neck and bridge pick ups. Signed by Chris Tomlin. This Gibson SG includes a photograph of Chris Tomlin with the guitar. 39 by 13 inches (of standard Les Paul Guitar) The artist says of this work: "When I saw a pic early on of all these giant guitars all primed white in the back of truck it seemed eerily like a group of ghosts. I became inspired to do an understated white on white ghostly icon knowing most of them would be over the top embellished." Eddie Myers From paper to glass to steel and wood, Eddie has built a reputation as a design daredevil. As a self taught artist from Oklahoma City, he has blazed a trail producing graphics, lamps, furniture ...even a floating aluminum staircase over his 30-year career. From the Prince of Morocco to Nintendo Austin, you might find his fingerprints. “It was a great privilege to participate in a project that paid tribute to the music of Austin and to the art community as well.” Chris Tomlin Photo of Mr. Tomlin with guitar courtesy of Gibson Categories:
