Mike Bloomfield Prototype, Live in New York
If you’re like us, you were wiping the drool off your chin looking at the gorgeous Gibson Custom Shop Mike Bloomfield Les Paul Prototype unveiled a few weeks ago at NAMM. And if you’re in the New York area, you have a chance to see and hear this particular guitar in person at B.B. Kings on February 7th, played by Jimmy Vivino, according to Allen Bloomfield’s blog. Allen Bloomfield is Mike’s brother, and he is the rightful owner of the prototype Bloomfield Les Paul. It’s cool that he’s loaning out that beautiful Les Paul to do what it’s meant to do. Jimmy Vivino will be performing at B.B. Kings to celebrate Al Kooper’s birthday.
