Wayback Machine helped me to see past auction in which Thompson said that this guitar could say a lot if guitars could talk. I wonder what would she say...

"Porl: My good old Gibson 345! Feedback just seems to have more depth and a nicer tone on a semi-acoustic. Also you can get nice things by strumming behind the bridge on the long tailpiece. I do that live on From The Edge Of The Deep Green Sea and Fascination Street."
