Tom Petty super bowl guitars

As for Petty's band actually playing live, I have my doubts. The logistics of attempting a live broadcast/mix of a rock band as big as Petty's from a four ton moveable stage with literally no time for a sound check are unfathomable. My educated guess is, is that Petty (and band) did sing live, but to a pre-recorded track, done earlier in the day on location to make it really sound live. The Stones did actually play and sing live several years before, and we all remember what THAT sounded like. But since this is about guitars, anyone ever seen Campell's LP gold-top with the Gretsch PUP's? God I wonder what that baby sounds like....

I have never seen that guitar live, but I remember it from multiple videos and concerts. I still have the issue of Vintage Guitar magazine with Petty and Campbell on the cover, with a great multi-page spread on a lot of their guitars, but that Les Paul was not pictured and was barely mentioned in the article. A bit of a disappointment. All in all, though, still one of my favorite issues of VG.

i'm not sure if this has been answered but the double neck he was using during free fallin and runnin down a dream is a Ferrington custom made guitar.
