I worked for Jerry part time back in the 60s and I remember him building a guitar for Jimmy. I seem to remember building a blue case for it. All the other cases were covered in black. Anyone know what happened to this bit of Jimmy Day history?

Charlie has it, I believe it was the blue blanton that had the word "peace" engraved on the front.

That guitar has changed hands quite a bit, at one point I believe it was stolen and painted black, Charlie recognized b/c of the engraving and bought it. I think that's the story, haven't talked to Charlie in several years...
