I contacted Zemaitis in Japan after I saw the pictures of keith richards playing his famous "stolen" 5 string guitar on the Bigger Bang Tour. A guy named Chuck e-mailed me back telling me that Zemaitis japan made 3 of those;one went to Keith, one went to the Zemaitis museum in Japan and the third one is for sale :$18,600! The guitar is named "Macabre". I wish I could afford it. Damn it!!

This is a new Zemaitis he is playing. If I remember correctly, the original guitar he used on the 75/76/78 tours, was lost in a fire at Keith's house at Redlands. However, in '81, Tony Zemaitis made another one for a friend of his that is now selling for $75,000 at Maverick Music.
