Seems like such a shame to see it stuck to a wall. Someone should be playing it.

Jack Brue is none, but Jack BruCe instead was the bassist of the overcharged blues band called Cream that featured Clapton on the guitar (when he was cool and nothing than boring) and Jinger Baker on drums.
Bruce and Baker where so good that almost overshadowed Clapton at that era.
Curious that Baker in the late '70s came to Italy to work effectively as a BAKER in a small town near mine.

(sorry for the funny OT)

Oh... yeah, the "C" changes everything!
And wasn't it Ginger (not Jinger) Baker?
Or maybe we're talking about that group called Half and Half instead of Cream.
Jack Brue on bass, Jinger Baker on drums and Eric Clayton on guitar.

Eric Clapton had an SG that was painted like this.

Yeah I've seen it this summer at the Hard Rock cafe in Lisbon..amazing paintjob..but I'm still sure of a similar Jazzmaster..every time I go to an HR cafè I look to their book of guitars untill someone of the stuff kick me out!!

(that book cost 50€ and up, I'll never buy it :-\)
