Those contemporary era guitars on that LP cover could only have been made in Europe- the archtop with flat simple cutaway, non-fixed bridge, trapeze tailpiece and open headstock reflect Selmer/Maccaferri styling. Were they all Egmond models I wonder, as the two pickup job was an Egmond/Rosetti model...?
The Thorell of Frank Vignola, and the similar handmade Mike Vanden guitar (Martin Taylor uses these) with similar modern made designs reflect this European style rather than the American Gibson traditional style.
