  1. This one is my favorite of Edge's guitars. Looks cool and feck.



    Used for "Desire" and "The Fly" during the Zoo tours and seen in the "Wild Irish Rose" video...



    ...studio use? Uncertain but there are pictures in the AB CD booklet and AB era related studio shots of Edge playing this guitar... So I'd assume it's on the album for at least one tune (or more)
  2. Maybe the fly?

    It's certainly possible. Also possible as the 'studio' pictures were mostly from Hansa, that it was used on many things from the Salome' sessions - things that were aborted or later redone.

    Maybe it's on Lady With The Spinning Head? Maybe "Where Did It All Go Wrong"... another question to ask Dallas or The Edge... when ever it is that I might next see them.

    I do remember an interview with Dallas... from just after the release of Passengers... and his mentioning what a great guitar this guitar is (the Clapton) and that he was going to bring it in for The Edge for the "new" (at the time) recordings (of what later became Pop).

    So maybe.... maybe it is on some of Pop?

    Again... just another question for the ever-growing list.

    Awesome guitar no question of that. Such a great tone throughout most of ZooTV when it was used

    And it looks cool as feck! When I went to the R&R Hall in 2003... I stood and stared at every inch of that guitar for an hour. You could see the finger grime on the fretboard - everything.

    And unlike the picture... it now has (or did in 2003) a mauve coloured mirror pick guard that matched the guitar nicely.

    Ha, that's delightful lol - "the finger grime on the fretboard"...

    ...which reminds me, I got hold of some more Roto reds (strings) today, plus another strap for my Strat., need to replace the shitty strings on my LP and clean the fretboard, pickup guards etc.

    If only to get Dallas to drop by... set up and re-wire my pedals for maximum effectiveness and to set up all my guitars. That is MY idea of winning LOTTO

    Ha, indeed, and get Edge to mess around with the settings until he finds something unique and Edge-esque

    Even to just set up my guitars so that all of them play with great intonation and such... that'd rock.

    Perhaps we should kidnap him?
  11. What's on the pedalboard presently? (I've tons to chose from)


    Right now the chain is as follows:

    Ibanez Weeping Demon (Wah) > Visual Sound Route 66 (combo: Compressor and Tubescreamer-like OD > Boss OD-2r (Overdrive) > Sobbat Drivebreaker (Overdrive) > Loveone Big Cheese (fuzz/distortion) > Line 6 MM4 modulation modeler (digitally reproduces a number of various Tremolo, Chorus, Phaser, Flanger, Rotary, Vibrato pedal sounds) > Line 6 DL4 Delay Modeler (digitally reproduces a number of delay pedays) > Line 6 Verbzilla (Reverbs and Shimmer sounds)
