I have a nice brochure of Martin Guitars that has a lovely picture of MK's Martin.   I will scan it and send it along as soon as the computer is out of the hospital.
But a spoonful of forgiveness
Goes a long, long way
And we all should do our best
To get along

By the way, Guy said that the Fender is an early signature strat so it MUST be Texas Specials because all Marks Fender signature strats are equipped with them;)

Very cool and detailed photos!!! Thanks!

Does SE mean special (signature) edition or just SErial? But the marked guitar does not have a black color neck (fingerboards) and does not look like new ???

From bonus DVD of Get Lucky.  You can't miss it, can't you?  I remember Guy took a foto or two of that original guitar during last tour.  Haven't got time to dig those fotos up.

SE means serial, indeed the marked guitar isn`t a signature strat it has a maple fingeboard instead of rosewood so it isn`t the guitar that mark played at princess trust;)
If i was a Fender guitar, Fender painted red...

Thanks for answer, I mean the same -  it is not guitar used at PT

By the way, we can see two Sig Strats with serial nbrs 00000 and 00001, so Guy's answer about unknown Strat is not correct.

By the way, where is the diary for Shangri-La tour?   I remember there's one more pic about the 00001 guitar.  If someone can call it back, then go to Stuttgart page, April 10th, 2005, and you can check 000 and 001 there.  http://www.guyfletcher.co.uk/images/2005pics/Germany/000-001.jpg    A pity I didn't save those pics on my HD.

It is Pensa MK80
The guitar was presented to Mark by Rudy Pensa in January 2004. The guitar's order number was 0188 but it was especially numbered 0001 and is the only MK80 with a triple zero serial number
