Voilou pour l'équipement de KK et Glenn a travers les ages! :lol:

Oui, c'est en fait une compilation de plusieurs sources! Tout ce qui est 70's-80's-90's vient du JP info page et le reste vient du site de KK, mais ce n'est pas KK!

L'an passé avec Max on s'était amusé à trouver des photos de toutes les guitares utilisées par KK et Glenn à travers les années, mais on avait pas fini. Je m'y remettrai un de ces quatre tiens!

Petite précision, pour la guitare rouge de KK avec la Priest Headstock, c'est une custom faite par son lutier Dan Johnson je crois.
