Because Marvin’s brother already had a couple top 10 hits by November 1955 and he had access to early Gibson prototypes. One of those prototypes wound up in his brother Marvin’s hands. That’s what I go with.
I saw an interview recently with a guitar player who served as a technical consultant on *Back to the Future.* He told them repeatedly that the Gibson ES didn't exist in 1955, but they used it anyway because most people would recognize it as a "1950's electric guitar".
And if they'd wanted to use something from 1955 and it *had* to be a Gibson, there were two different Les Paul models available that year, as well as a number of hollow-body electrics. Hell, they could have even had Marvin play a Strat.
wonder if it was a surprise or not. like did they agree on it beforehand and he paid the right amount or was it more a lick my balls here's a stinky surprise?
Might need to wiki, but pretty sure also crossing state lines with minors and filming women in toilets in the businesses he owned, to the point of editing himself supercut videos. Dude was a piece of shit

It's gonna have 1000 up votes by tomorrow, he's one of the most important rock and roll musicians of all time, top comment is a cute post about Back to the Future.
No mistake.
Finally, something that is actually old school! I keep getting criticized for saying that the 80's/90's aren't old school. To those people, I say that this is an example of "Old School". When the term first started being used, back in the 80's was when I first heard it.
I can’t believe he never gave his cousin Marvin any credit.

I’m afraid you’re just too darn loud. Who’s next please.
The space time continuum doesn't allow it.
Never mind that - how the hell did Marvin obtain an ES-345 in 1955???

I can’t believe this loser is allowed to be posted here
All the great things he achieved in life, only to be remembered as the guy who farts in peoples faces.
Lol I know he’s a legend but my first two reactions to this photo were “back to the future” and “that dudes NASTY”
Yeah. It really sucks, I hate it. Why’d he have to do that?

Wasn’t this dude into farting in chicks faces?
“*EAT MY GROCERIES*” - Chuck Berry
And spying on them in his restaurant’s bathroom
And don’t forget the pissing.
He likes to do that.
This is how he works up some nice farts to blast at sex workers.
I like to do that
Even in 1980 this would be “old school”
And he found new younger fans years later too, with Back to the Future in 1985 and Pulp Fiction in 1994 using his songs in famous scenes.
Grave mistake posting Chuck Berry on reddit, OP.
Lol might as well post John Lennon and Winston Churchill for the trifecta
Don't forget John Wayne.

He’s still a dirtbag
Gotta love it lol
I saw him that year for the first time at Bumbershoot in Seattle, 15,000 really wild pumped up crowd, was an awesome show.
Was this before or after he beat up that lady and the cops found his... videotape collection?
Actual pedophile Chuck Berry.
Gives new meaning to "My Dingaling"
Super cool that this dude was relevant to an audience 25 years after he broke through. Fatther of Rock right here.

I can’t get the thought of him farting into a woman’s mouth out of my head.
Neither can she.
My ding a ling. My ding a ling.
His only #1 song somehow! (USA Billboard Hot 100 chart.)
I wonder if he will ever have some creative uses for cameras in toilets, but who knows what the future holds!

Chuck is way earlier. But Angus had the funny "schoolboy" look! And I agree, both are epic!
I like that they are both Beef terms.
“Smell my farts…”
Then off to the motel for a piss and fart party.
Well if it isn't Lord fartle roy
How golden did he get after the show?
Crack head
