My Gibson Birdland style guitar with dogear P90's.

[Wezie Guitar lover]

Ok so I got a Korea made Waterstone guitar. Brand not made anymore. It is a Gibson Birdland style guitar with silver dogears P90's.

It has a strange shape headstock. Klusen style machine heads. Block In lays. Florentine cut away. Pick guard.

Norms Rare Guitars sold one also. It was nice too. They have a back control cover to work on the electronics. It is like the 1970's Norlin Gibson odd balls.

I like it. It need locking machine heads, nut, roller bridge I hate Tun-O-Matic bridges, frett job frets hang off. And the fretboard cleaned. It needs new strings.

It has a fake Bigsby. I want a Guild Bigsby made trem.

It looks amazing. It has a nice top. It is really nice. Used it was under 250 dollars. I seen others from the brand different models sell for over 1000 dollars?

Here is some pics.

I watched Hee Haw as a kid. It reminds me of the guitars I saw Roy Clark one of my favorite guitars players ever play.

I did not have a dogears P90's guitar. So this one is nice. Neck profile is decent. It needs some work. A fixer upper.

Roy's was made by "Grammer Guitars".

Roy's was made by "Grammer Guitars".

????????? Billy Grammer only made acoustic flat top guitars (after Ampeg bought Grammer, they continued to only build acoustics under the Grammer name).

Roy's Byrdlands were all Gibsons.
--------------------------
Grammer's headstocks were only vaguely similar to the Waterstone headstock.

Ampeg changed the "G"s to lower case letters.

I can't find any references to Roy owning a Grammer.
