Used by Lee and Thurston:
1985
1985 -- ??
NOTES:
A sunburst Hagstrom Viking can be seen at Lee's feet in a picture from the March/April 1985 Europe tour. I hadn't seen this elsewhere and couldn't even guess what it might have been used for.
A picture has surfaced of Lee playing this guitar with a screwdriver behind the 9th fret, while Kim is singing and playing bass. I think this can only be "Flower", although he generally used the Kent for that...I'd be curious to hear any theories!
To further the mystery, pictures from April 17th, 1985 by Petra Gall show Thurston playing it, prepared with drumsticks for what can only be "I Love Her All The Time" based on other clues. Thanks to Raj Paden for the tip!
