I will be bringing my 1956 Gibson Console Grand D8 in it’s original case to the 2015 ISGC, to get the case signed by
Jim Vest and Chubby Howard.
It’s a 1956 Gibson Console Grand D8 Serial No. 63259.
Has 4 legs, because the legs are still good and tight, Martin Weenick made the nice bar to keep it that way
I have E13 on top C6th on bottom last I remember. You do your thing
It spent over 57 years in the case
Don Helms played my Gibson in his living room on Wednesday April 4, 2007 and signed the bottom of the guitar and the case
Cold, Cold, Heart, was one of the tunes he played.
In 2007 we didn't have enough room for Don's guitar and case and my case in my car so we left my guitar at Don's and put "Old Red" in my case to go to St. Louis.
I miss you Hoss
Take a long close look at who sign it, you will be surprised. See list below.
It is hard for me to let this Guitar go but, firm $2900 cash and you carry it home, I will not ship this guitar

Mr. Young got this new when he was
8 years old, by picking up corn behind
