The 325 was designed by Roger Rossmeisl, a guitar craftsman from a family of German instrument makers. Production models had a 20 + 3 ⁄ 4-inch (530 mm) short scale, dot fretboard inlays, and a small (12 + 3 ⁄ 4-inch-wide [320 mm]) body. The body is unbound, semi-hollow, with an angled sound hole, and boasts "crescent moon"-style cutaways.
Souldier is a company founded in Chicago, Illinois, primarily known for its hand-made guitar straps. [1] [2] In 2004, Jen Tabor, music teacher and band-member, made guitar straps as birthday presents for the other band-members, using fabric and recycled seatbelts. This idea turned into a business.
A strap lock is a device that prevents the guitar strap from slipping off the strap peg. Several companies make these, and players also improvise various devices that fit over the part of the strap peg that protrudes through the strap end—rubber washers, plastic bag closures, etc. Dunlop Ergo Lok; LOXX Strap Lock
Number One (also known as Vaughan's 'First Wife') was a Fender Stratocaster used by Vaughan for most of his career; it was "rebuilt more times than a custom Chevy." [2] Vaughan always claimed it was a 1959 model, since that date was written on the back of the pick-ups; Rene Martinez, who maintained the guitar since 1980, saw the year 1963 stamped in the body and 1962 on the neck.

The guitar has a maple neck and fretboard, chrome hardware, and was painted with a white over black design. This gave the appearance of a white guitar with black stripes. Later, red was painted over the original black and white. This now gave the appearance of a red guitar but was, in fact, just a third color sprayed over the original design.
In 1947 the materials used for the guitar changed to maple back and sides. Gibson changed the name to the J-200 in 1955. Due to the weak post-depression economy and wartime austerity, demand for this high-end guitar was very limited and production quantities were small. Early models made from rosewood are highly prized by collectors.
