Doesn't look like an Irwin to me, and I've never heard of this as a Jerry guitar before, but still very cool. Irwin Guitar?

Distinctive - yes. mtjam Intermediate Member Username: mtjam Post Number: 139 Registered: 11-2011 Posted on Saturday, February 08, 2014 - 4:13 pm:    Very unique! I would definitely give a dollar for that! lbpesq Senior Member Username: lbpesq Post Number: 5649 Registered: 7-2004 Posted on Saturday, February 08, 2014 - 8:38 pm:    I have a vague memory of seeing the body design before. The horns look similar to some Veillette-Citron guitars and basses. The head design is nothing like Irwin's, nor is the neck/body joint in back like Irwin's work.

Who knows?!?.... gtrguy Senior Member Username: gtrguy Post Number: 697 Registered: 9-2004 Posted on Sunday, February 09, 2014 - 12:09 pm:    Cool looking instrument. Sellor must think Craigslist is like EBay, since he is asking for 'bids'. I hate that kind of thing. edwin Senior Member Username: edwin Post Number: 1710 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Sunday, February 09, 2014 - 10:22 pm:    It doesn't look remotely like any other Irwin I've seen. I wonder if he has any provenance. sjhoffma Advanced Member Username: sjhoffma Post Number: 325 Registered: 5-2008 Posted on Tuesday, February 11, 2014 - 1:22 pm:    I remember the last time I was talking gear with Steve Parish, my buddy Zach showed him his Michas "wolf" guitar, which was a string through body. The first thing Steve pointed out was there was no way Doug would ever have made a string through body guitar... and that was his only major criticism of that guitar. I'll go with my gut, Steve's advice, and that neck/body joint and say no... this is not an Irwin.
