Zandard Registry

Couple things sent me looking for a Zandard thread rather than start a new one. /emoticons/default_cool.png/emoticons/default_cool.png

I'm excited to see how much the original Zandard #0004 is used in the Budokan especially the dvd portion of it. NICE!!! I like the Cream cavity covers on the back of the original. Did the Zandard run have that?

I posted my Hamer Zandard version above my '01 Standard Custom. Lil more Yellow than the Zandard run but Dead right for me.

I had Cream covers put on my Mighty Hamer Daytona Mite when it was built up and was thinking how much I ended up with that guitar being in the Zandard vein too.

I felt the same way. Made me value my Zandard more than I had been lately. The back covers on the Zandard are the black brushed type.

My thoughts exactly. Rick played either #0000 or #0004 pretty much the whole night. I think he used a Les Paul on one thing and his red Strat on "Ain't That a Shame", but other than that, only the Hamers seemed to be getting any airtime. I didn't recall that when I had the VHS tape, but I haven't watched that in years.

Made me kinda miss my natural '79 Standard!

 
Yep, its me- I'm the proud owner of the Zandard that I got from Kurt. Its just so perfect I don't have the courage to play it. I've got a couple of others I play when I want to scratch that itch. It is always hard for me to hold on to guitars I don't play so I had considered selling the Zandard a time or two. After getting a chance to hang out with Rick and Robin backstage in Reno one night with Kilroy (hang out might be an over statement)- I have valued the Zandard more. It was a great show and a great evening.

Plus, the guitar is cool as heck- /emoticons/default_biggrin.png

Wow, that's cool, dude. I have 2 CT wishes. The first is to introduce my boy Zander to Robin, and the 2nd is to have the Zandard signed (tastefully, of course).

 
Hey Srvwannab,

Thanks for the post. OK, its official, all three have been located and are doing well. Great post about Rick, Robin and Kilroy. I think I recall the post that Kilroy made.

As posted below, what's the fable of the name "Zandard"?

Jol and I where talking. The conversation steered to the run of 3 Standards I wanted built that where to color match the Guitars Of The Stars #0004. He referred to them as the Zander Standards. I asked why, he said that #0004 was made for Robin, but Rick absorbed it into his stash. Later I just put the 2 words together, ZANDer stanARD.

 
Illinois weather sucks! Really wanted to post some pics but the weather is cold and nasty and overcast most days. So here is just a taste and I'll get a group photo soon. BTW I find it an honor to have this one in my collection right next to the CMatthes 91 Standard and the Charley Huhn #0221 Standard. A special thanks to Dave and another HFC that made this happen.

OK. I am reviving this thread despite the number of dead links just because I love natural Standards so much.
