A year ago, Kevin “Geordie” Walker, guitarist of Killing Joke, left this dimension.
This underrated guitarist influenced several generations of musicians with his unconventional musical ideas and the gigantic tone that came from his beloved Gibson 295 ES.
This latest creation of mine, commissioned by a customer who is a Walker fan, is a tribute to this instrument and above all to this Musician.
I sincerely thanks for the opportunity to have been able to create such an instrument, hoping to have been able to celebrate Geordie Walker’s musical legacy.
Kevin “Geordie” Walker, 18/12/1958 – 23/11/2023
