    Typical 52-copy lettered editions run from A-Z (#1-#26) and AA to ZZ (#27-#52).

    Are there exceptions to this rule (barring out-of-series copies)?

    The publisher can choose any method they like to indicate the limitation, so yes there are exceptions. That convention is typical though.

    I just cannot bring my self to do it. I have every S/L and even the obscure ones but a guitar signed by the man? Nope.. I just cannot imagine spending $5K on that.

    That is a high-end masterpiece guitar even without King's signature. As a King collectible, it's probably not very interesting but the quality of craftsmanship and materials is worth the price.

    Yeah I did hear that before. It’s a wonderfully made guitar. Just not in the book area so not an S/L for me. Be a definite if you were into both king and Music!

    If I could play the guitar, I'd own one. But I sold mine after taking 6 months of lessons and still being inept.

    While it certainly is a King collectible, it is not a book.

    Although it's cool, I don't feel the need to own one.

    Like Jerome said, "If I could play the guitar, I'd own one."

    I work at Penguin USA (Viking) and Stephen King has asked me to post the following note to you all. Please feel free to copy and disseminate this. For those of you who are wondering, this is only the second time there has ever been a message from Steve in this newsgroup. The first time was when he was on his motorcycle tour cross country for Insomnia (two years ago) when he posted from a bookstore at Cornell U. Please don't flood us with responses to this letter. Steve will not be reading them. Any responses to this aol email address will just be going to the publisher.

    << November 21, 1996

    Gentle Readers:
    It's reached my attention that there's been a fair degree of pissing and moaning about the Wizard and Glass booklet which comes with a dual purchase of Desperation and The Regulators. I swear to God, some of you guys could die and go to heaven and then complain that you had booked a double occupancy room, and where the hell is the sauna, anyway? The major complaints seem to be coming from people who have already bought both books. Those of you who bought the double-pack got the light, right? A freebie. So whatcha cryin' about?
    The booklet was my idea, not the publisher's--a little extra for people who wanted to buy both books after supplies of the famous "Keep You Up All Night" light ran out. If you expect to get the booklet IN ADDITION to the light, all I can say is sorry, Cholly, but there may not be enough booklets to go around. If you bought the two books separately, because there weren't any gift packs left (they sold faster than expected, which is how this booklet deal came up in the first place), go back to where you bought them, tell the dealer what happened, show him/her your proof of (separate) purchase, and they'll take care of you. If they get wise witcha, tell 'em Steve King said that was the deal.
    If you're just jacked because you want to read the first two chapters of Wizard and Glass, wait until the whole thing comes out. Or put it on your T.S. List and give it to the chaplain. In any case, those of you who are yelling and stamping your feet, please stop. If you're old enough to read, you're old enough to behave. STEVE KING >>

    Wow that was harsh!

    At anyrate, I could swear that when I bought my copy I got both. I know I have both now, and have no idea of where I would have gotten the W&G booklet if it wasn't with the set. I wasn't a collector back in those days, so I definetly would not have made any special effort to acquire the booklet. I'll double check that they are both 1st printings, but I am pretty sure they are, otherwise, I would have bought another set by now.

    A lot of stores carried loose stacks of the W&G preview and could be sweet-talked out of them.
