PAT MARTINO Live At The Bottom Line NY, NY. Oct 1984.
This footage was uploaded in 2011 as two separate parts.
With the sad passing of Jazz Guitar’s premier artist it is worthy of
a re upload as a complete document..
I guess it was the rehearsal footage with a small portion of the performance
at The Bottom 1984
For the guitar geeks Pat is playing a solid body Polytone Contempo G1980
guitar.
. I believe this guitar was designed by Hidesato Shiino who is the founder of H.S. Anderson (awesome guitars if you can find one). Also looks great with abalone trim, gold plated pickups and bridge, solid brass knobs nuts and adjustable saddles. Body is sculpted ash, maple neck. Body features dual strap pins. The original tuners have been swapped for a set of new Gotoh tuners that look identical to the originals and are made in Japan.
