Is it? Thanks so much Austlin! I had no idea!

I think "Sunburst" refers to the finish on the (any) guitar

Yes, it does.

Austin, I'm glad you're here. As I was looking at it again, I noticed notes that appeared to be "(pickup up pos)" on a couple of the "LP" songs. Would that refer to the position of the switch on the Les Paul, do you think?

Yup - that would indeed indicate the pickup selector switch is on up, which is on the "neck" pickup. Down would be on the "bridge" pickup.

Thanks, Austin.

Now I have my left-handed husband analyzing the handwriting for "lefty" clues. I'm getting way too obsessive about this.

(And yes, he thinks it was written by a lefty.)

[Ive always been a dreamer]

I've always known it was there & assumed others did too.

OMG FP - Why in the world would you assume that? Like I said, in 6 years, I can't ever remember one single mention of this on the board. I think it is a really cool piece of trivia that is definitely worthy of mention.

Anyway, I went ahead and scanned this in case anyone doesn't see it on their copy. When I tried to make it bigger, it got too blurry, but maybe someone else can get a good quality larger version.



The more I look at this, I'm thinking it probably isn't Glenn's handwriting. I'm not positive about that though.

[WalshFan88]

If I had to guess - I'd say it's Glenn's guitar tech's writing. Most techs write down special notes about the settings, guitars, etc on the setlist so they have them to refer to when they go to hand off the guitars to the player. Back when I was in the Eagles tribute, I used to do the same. I would write next to each song on our setlist (my copy) which guitar I was using and if any settings on the amp, guitar, or pedals needed to be changed for that song. It's a common occurrence that happens with any band really. The setlist was probably the guitar tech's copy since the tech usually has his own copy of the setlist to refer to when preparing guitars for the artist and gets them ready.

Thanks for the insight, Austin. I figured that was probably the case, but it never hurts to dream.

Sorry for being the bearer of bad news.
