William Reid's Guitars
In this photo, William can be seen playing an ES-330.
"William had a vintage Gretsch Tennessean guitar that was a horrible coffee-table color," Jim explained to Select magazine. "A classic guitar, you know? Dave Gilmour walks past and sees William with a pot of black paint, painting this wonderful vintage Gretsch guitar black. Ruining it. When he sees this, he [looks horrified] and hurries away. Probably to tell Pete [Townshend]. I wish I'd had a video camera."
William can be seen playing a Hofner Verithin in a live MTV performance from the Honey's Dead era (1992). Colour? Black of course.
he was seen with the guitar in 2007
