Steve Howe's Gibson ES-175

^{There are a few guitarists that are historically important. When they pass, Every Guitar Has A Story usually takes a moment to focus on the actual instrument. It might be interesting to get ahead of the pattern.}

^{Steve Howe was in super rock groups, including YES and Asia.  Iconic guitar performances ring in our memories. He is not dead. He does have a guitar that could be auctioned for a fortune. It is a Gibson ES-175. It has been his main guitar since the 1970s.}

^{Here is the short story. He bought it in 1964 when he was 17. He knew what he wanted. It was a special order placed at a London music store.}

^{He put money down and made payments over a few years.}

^{He has many other guitars, but this one has been in a long term relationship with the player. He has played it on hits in the studio, live on important tours and he keeps it clean and close. They say it is in near perfect condition after all these years.}

^{Maybe Steve Howe’s Gibson ES-175 will end up in an auction and you could win it for $75.}
