Call it rumors, gossip, whatever, but there had been talk that Joe Bonamassa, blues guitar superstar and über-collector of vintage guitars, was going to one day buy his local store, Norman’s Rare Guitars.
It was a good rumor because it would have made perfect sense. He knows the product. He is in the store all the time, lured down to Ventura Boulevard by the heady scent of aged nitrocellulose lacquer that wafts from the many holy grail vintage electric guitars that hang upon its walls.
