This is a great idea for a thread! I don't like looking at pictures of the new guitars. I only like blue :D

I went to Music Center with one of my guy friends and while he went to look for something that he needed for his amp, I went around looking at the guitars. Low and Behold when I was walking towards my friend I looked up and saw a Fender Strat that looked exactly like Blue (without the stickers). I was literally freaking out (in my mind) and then I looked at the price. It was over $1000.

i think he's playing a replica in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZaEXja-ieI

but now hes plaing the original again i think. becuase the replicas all were fenders and it says fender on the head

heres a picture i took in may - i think this should be the original, or he has better replicas now!

Billie is playing replicas now, the original blue broke so bad that it isnt useable any more.

He used to play with it in studio but not live. He bought a bunch of Fernandez Strats and made his own replicas which he plays now.

it didnt break; he stopped using it to preserve its fragile condition

^^ Actually no, that's what most people think but Bill Schneider was on this forum a while back and explained that Billie got the original Blue fixed some years ago, and it's now the only Blue you see him use. All the replicas were either destroyed or given away, I think.

About the only semi-decent picture I managed to take of Blue. I get what people were saying before, it's kinda wierd seeing it in the flesh haha.

:lol:

what the fuck. they are all scratched up on the back on the same spot. what the hell is billie doing lol

A lot of belts will scratch the backs of guitars up while they are being played.. happens all the time. Billie moves around so much it scratches all over the top edge.
