Re: What brand of Sunglasses does Joe Bonamassa wear?

My old pair of Maui Jims cost almost $300 without a prescription.  I took a thump and broke 'em.

Sorry sir that model is discontinued.  pbbbt  mad

Top end TagHuers are about the same.  Add a purscription and features...$500

But I don't know what he wears...switches up.  You don't want Joe to be bored (or boring  lol ) do ya?

Re: What brand of Sunglasses does Joe Bonamassa wear?

This is so funny. I bet the guys at J&R are posting a link to this thread to all the sunglasses manufacturers to see if they can get a merchadising deal. They'll all be sending him samples to test drive when he goes back to Santorini.  JB sunglasses will be in the store before we know it!  cool   cool   cool

I don't need to know thanks - just as long as Joe keeps churning out that great music I'm happy!  cool

Now where's that Dollar Store Mr Gibbons?

Vests I guess, and they, I mean we minus me, wear them at all ages, but they are usually the fashion of business type...we say 3 piece suit which means pants (trousers to you), jacket, and vest (or waist coat).  No age restrictions perceived here.  And rather than using "fancy" to mean "prefer", we would actually call that dressing "fancy" or "sharp".

I'm really looking to find a pair of sunglasses similar to Joe's but I cannot figure out the brand. Any help on this one? They're the pair he wore at Albert Hall.  Here's a picture of the pair I'm talking about:

Guitars: '79 LP Custom, '01 Dickey Betts Goldie - 80 of 114, '00 Chandler Lectraslide
Amps: '00 Marshall 1987x, '70 Marshall 1959 SL, 4x12 JBL D120s
'64 Vibroverb - JBL D130, '66 Super Reverb - CTS Alnicos
'77 Peavey Deuce (great for melting stubborn ear wax)

Re: What brand of Sunglasses does Joe Bonamassa wear?

...Joe must have worn many types and brands of sunglasses over recent years but the ones at the mo` seem to be Tag 5016 191`s!  cool <<<< ...mind you anyone know what ones the smiley is wearing?  hmm

Re: What brand of Sunglasses does Joe Bonamassa wear?

“I have four sets of them,” Bonamassa once told GuitarMessenger.com. “I have the 'hot summer show' ones–called Silhouettes, because they wrap around your ears. That prevents them from sliding off. Then, when you get into the wintertime and the theater’s not that hot, I wear a set of Pradas. I also have a set of Ray Bans and a set of Revos. I’m sure I’ve bought enough sunglasses to put somebody’s kid through college.”

Re: What brand of Sunglasses does Joe Bonamassa wear?
