What does the "AP" on Jon's black acoustic guitar stand for????

Does anyone know? I've noticed this before, and i thought maybe someone here would know. Peaches? Anyone?

It's the brand. Probably an Aria AP Acoustic Guitar.

Thanks Deb, it just looked to me like it was scratched on the guitar, like with a sharp exacto knife or something. It didn't look "printed". I could be wrong, thanks for your answer!

Hey, "Always Perfect" lol.

I thought it meant "After Peaches"?

Maybe it's Aussigurl Phone-me lol

Al Parinello, Jon's guitar teacher, who passed away in 1995.

AH-HA!! THAT makes sense! Thank you for posting that, i really appreciate that! ;-)

Jon plays a Takamine semi-acoustic 6 string. He will also play a 12 st acoustic which is I think another Takamine.

great guitars btw. but I'm rather fond of my Ibanez we've been friends now for going on 30 yrs.

Hi, welcome!
You seem to know alot about guitars. Quick question... some pics have Jon playing and the AP is on the guitar and other pics it is not. Can you tell if he has identical guitars???? Just wondering...

No, they're different instruments. Most musicians have several guitars on hand. that way if they break a string or the guitar goes out of tune, they can hand it off to a tech or pick up another instrument.
A musician of Richie's caliber tends to tour with about two dozen or so. Jon I believe packs around 6.
When me and my band go to a gig, I take two electric 6 strings (one a gibson the other a strat) One acoustic and two semi-acoustic. Our bassist brings 2.( a four string and a 5 string.)
And when you go to see a live bar band like us, you'll notice that between sets, we're putzing with our instruments. We're checking for tune, changing strings. or putting our heads together to decide what we're gonna do next or perhaps deciding where we're gonna get pizza at 2am.

Hope that helps you.

I just noticed one of your other posts.. would you be willing to send me 'Walks like a Man' too? I can play the silly thing. but when I've tried to find it at target, they're always out.

Thanks!
