Ed King Custom 24 (Signature Model)

[D F]

Hello,
Has anyone ever seen an Ed King Custom 24 with gold hardware?
This guitar seems extra special, like maybe it was made for Ed King. It has a 10 top as well.
I'm having trouble figuring out how to include pictures to this post. But the serial # is 9566
Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.

AFAIK, there was the ”Ed King Rig” that was just an electronic package - HSH in his preferred positions. The middle single coil pickup was closer to the bridge.

Who’s Ed King ? Does everyone get a signature axe now ?

What no “load a pic into your avatar”, heck do I have to do all the work around here?!

Welcome to the forum DF. You need to use a “third party” image host to load pics on here, like Imgur or Postimage etc.

Lynyrd Skynyrd. He's now deceased. It's a model from the 90s.

He's the guy that wrote Sweet Home Alabama, it's Ed's voice that says the immortal line "turn it up" at the beginning of the song. A really talented guitarist and a real pleasure to know ( I was lucky to meet him a few years ago) and we kept in touch regularly right up until his death.
