The proto in action ... (stolen from banjoplayer's thread on the guitar side) ... scroll forward to 2:50 to see Tommy wailing away on it, then Steve. (Dude- time for a haircut!)

YouTube- Deep Purple in Canberra

noticed it too in the video without thinking too much about it. i thought it might be some guitar from some shop in AUS. And now I discover THIS thread!!! WOW :eek::eek:
To me it looks like there will be some replacement for good old retiring #1 ???
btw.- wasn´t there a RW-BFR that was in the pipe becoming #1 ?

Dave (the guy that took that video) is a nice guy. Tommy and I had dinner with him and his wife the previous night. I can here myself talking in the back ground of the video too :eek:

Steve's using a Polytune now? I feel like I'm cheating with mine now...it's too easy to tune!

So, the proto has a solid blue finish on it. Is that to hide the wood type from view or is it a wood that doesn't like transparent finishes (Basswood)?
