This guitar was used by Tosh from 1972 to mid-1973. It was Tosh's main guitar in the studio with The Wailers on Catch a Fire and Burnin and on stage on the Catch a Fire tour. It can famously be seen on The Old Grey Whistle Test performance of Stir it Up and Concrete Jungle in May of 1973. He also briefly used it at the beginning of the group's US tour for Burnin but was later either opted for the Ovation Breadwinner or was stolen from the tour bus (similar to Marley's Stratocaster). It's unknown where the guitar is currently.
