Neil Young's "Old Black"

Universally amongst fans, Neil Young's guitar ‘Old Black’ is the stuff of legends.
From the crunchingly brutal Crazy Horse feedback fests to this year's solo electric, the Gibson Les Paul guitar has played witness to the full range of Neil's ragged glory.

A Boy And His Guitar! Neil Young Reunites With His "Mr. Soul" Guitar After 60 Years!
On August 15, Neil Young & The Chrome Hearts embraced a feature from their 2025 record, Talkin to the Trees, at the open-air Blossom Music Center in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. Friday night’s stop on the Love Earth Tour saw a mid-set placement of “Silver Eagle,” a track originally included on the band’s latest studio effort, and performed for the first time during their Buckeye State gig. Three moves ahead of the song premiere, Young led a tour debut of “Mr. Soul,” while using his original Squires Gretsch 6120 live for the first time since 1965, after reacquiring the instrument this year after a 60-year hiatus.

Billed as "an Aquarian Exposition: 3 Days of Peace & Music" and alternatively referred to as the Woodstock Rock Festival, it attracted an audience of more than 460,000. Thirty-two acts performed outdoors despite overcast and sporadic rain. It was one of the largest music festivals in history and would become the pinnacle musical event reflecting the counterculture of the 1960s.
