Description
James Gang was an American rock band formed in Cleveland, Ohio in 1966. The band went through a variety of line-up changes until they recorded their first album as a power trio consisting of Joe Walsh (guitars, lead vocals), Tom Kriss (bass), and Jim Fox (drums). Dale Peters replaced Kriss on bass for the band’s second and third albums. Two of the band’s songs, “Funk #49” and “Walk Away”, continue to be popular on classic rock and AOR stations. In late 1971, Walsh left to pursue a solo career and would later join the Eagles.
In recent years signed guitar pickguards have become a favorite among fans to display the autographs of their favorite recording artists. Most pick guards signed are bright white and made of very durable plastic. When signed with a permanent felt tip pen, the signature will contrast well with the background.
Presented is one of those guitar pickguards rare signed by the James Gang. The pickguard was added to a red Bridgecraft guitar. Joe Walsh, Dale Peters and Jim Fox signed the pickguard in blue/black felt tip (“8”).
