Nice colour though. And a beautiful guitar!

LE

I love purple and always thought of that as the forgotten Pensa.  In the guitar Stories documentary they discussed with Rudy going to the café and jotting down notes on a napkin before announcing the flame maple MK1 as the very first Pensa-Suhr, however he used this on tour with EC at least whole year before that.  He certainly had it in January '87 for the RAH shows, whereas the MK1 debuted at the Prince's Trust Gala on 6th June '88.
My fauvorite guitar. I own a replica  of the flamed mk1. I asked rudy to make it 12 years ago. He told me it would take half a year and 9k dollars to be finished.
I purchased every detailed part mk1 takes and found a local luthier to make it. It is not a Pensa-suhr but it looks alike.
Same pick-ups , body, fret, bridge, pegs and  whatever it took.

Please show us pictures of this gem!

It was a long tour, he surely wore many shirts we don't know  ;D
i actually distributed flyers for him at the last Bremen concert, thnx to our very own markywes. so it is still being done.

A lot of the professional photos are taken at certain shows though and not every concert.  I can recall the Edinburgh show in '96 I attended was professionally shot by photographers.  There was a leaflet on the seat when I entered and it said that if I wanted to purchase any from tonights show it was being photographed.  Never had that before.  I think I sent away for one.  Need to have a look.   :think

Those were the times when German photographer Guido Karp was Mark's tour photographer. He made 50 (or 100?) Photos available from those tours, mostly and naturally shot during one or two German shows. They gave you the illusion the pics were from "your" concert and you got that leaflet where you could set your order. It was first time done so in 1991 and  also that same way during the 2001 tour.

Please take care when quoting. Doing it like this is difficult to find out who's answering who and what...
You might get lucky, now and then

I know opinions will be divided but for me, this picture is beautiful.  :thumbsup

They are probably playing Wild West End in this one.

It would be nice if the author would choose better pics for Pick and Mark. They look terrible to me. Why pick a photo with bored Mark when there's tons of photos where he looks healthier and happier than this? From that picture it's John who should collect all the awards!
