In another thread, it was mentioned that Sonny Curtis played a Sho~Bud early in his career. Someone sent me an email saying that there is a pic on Sonny's website of the guitar (thanks again Chris), but does anyone have any pics of him actually playing the guitar. We have all seen many of him playing ZB and Clark guitars. I think it would be great to see pics of him and his Sho~Bud. What a great part of history.

Hi Richard. I am sending a letter to Sonny's PO Box. Maybe he has something he wouldn't mind sharing with us? I've been wanting to write to him for a while, but your post gave me the inspiration to do so.
It's a tough hunt, but I am coming across some good information and great pictures along the way. Thanks!

Scroll down to the George Jones LP and you can see Sonny holding his D8 Bud on his lap:

Looking for pics of Sonny Curtis playing his Bud, not just pics of anyone's random Bud.
