Title: Carl Wilson and Al Jardine as photographed by the Box Tops in 1968 Post by: jeremylr on November 08, 2022, 06:11:34 PM Founding Box Tops bassist Bill Cunningham added these startling color shots of Carl and Al on tour circa August 1968 to Facebook. The one of Carl in full-blown Chuck Berry axe mode was taken by "Cry Like a Baby" guitarist and fellow Box Tops bandmate Gary Talley. Unsure if they have been seen before.

I also posted the link to Ian's Beach Boys Gigs site in case they have more pictures they would like to share or just for checking out the website.
I think that at least the picture of Carl and Al backstage is well known though. Wasn't that one even in the 15 Big Ones gatefold?

The standard Tele does not have a Bigsby. But yes, a model with a Bigsby did exist although not too many were made: Norman's Rare Guitars - Guitar of the Day: 1967 Fender Telecaster with Bigsby https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=723AOW_RXno Title: Re: Carl Wilson and Al Jardine as photographed by the Box Tops in 1968 Post by: Rocker on December 20, 2022, 01:11:41 PM Speaking of the Box Tops, anybody heard about this?
