Re: Baldwin Marvin 'prototypes' used on 67 Australian tour

I would like to confirm that on the Australian tour of 1967 that both Hank and Bruce used Baldwin guitars and John used a Burns bass. I saw them play in Perth on 2nd and 3rd June 1967 at the Beatty Park Aquatic Centre. The guitars they used were notable as being different from the photo on the front cover of the programme which showed them holding Burns guitars. On the night they were supported by Perth bands The Troupadors, and The Valentines (with Bon Scott on vocals), and Denise Drysdale. We noted the presence in the crowd of many musicians from local Perth bands.
