    Yes, I'm impressed by how responsive Felder is on social media. It's very cool of him!

    Well, I was able to get to Joe Walsh.

    His response.

    "Nope. Never seen it before. Would have remembered this one."

    So Murcia fibbed to me!

    Well, I met some nice people during my research and had some fun. And still have a cool guitar!

    Thanks,

    John

    Very cool that you got a response. I'm not to surprised, I know of a couple of people that have been in touch with him that way, even playing one of the FB games with him. He's cool... everyone says so.

    Thanks for the update! Too bad it didn't turn out, but I'm glad you have a good attitude about it! Very cool about Joe.

    I knew Joey Murcia since his days playing in The Birdwatchers .. not sure how you got the guitar from him but from what I've read "Yes" this guitar belonged to Joe Walsh .. I don't remember it having the Stop Tail Piece and the tune-a-matic bridge (seen in the photo) .. but Joe giving a Telecaster to Joey Murcia happened like this > Joey was at Bayshore Studio in Coconut Grove working on Jay Ferguson's Lp .. He had brought a Cuban Coffee maker in and was making coffee Joe Walsh liked the coffee so much he traded the guitar for Joey's Cuban Coffee Maker .. the time line of 1977 is correct .. Joey Murcia is the person who suggested the reggae feel for Hotel California .. I'd like to know how you got the guitar

    Actually, he found out it was NOT Joe's guitar.

    I was a personal friend of Joey Murcia at this time and Joe Walsh did in fact give a tele to Joey. If you got this from Joey then it is probably the one Joe gave him.
