    On guitarry notes, I noticed Edge was wielding the Mardi Gras Music Rising Gibbo for New Year's Day at Dublin yesterday night so perhaps he didn't buy back the auctioned '75 afterall? Or was it the '76?


    It was a 75. He also has a 73 that looks almost the same, except the volume nobs are a diffrent color.
  2. You guys astonish me everytime

  3. My bad, '73 not '76 but yeah I couldn't remember which had the gold and which had the black nobs but yeah, did he actually buy that back or something? I think someone mentioned but can't remember who...

    We aim to please

    73 has the black knobs.


  6. 1972 or 1973. I have heard it referred to by both vintages. Silly Dallas and Edge are trying to confuse us!
  9. Another thing - Edge is using a Strat. for SBS, looks similar to the one he used on PopMart for ISHFWILF/AIWIY/Bad, if not the same? Might make sense 'cause all of them were tuned 2 steps down to standard D (correct me if I got the terminology wrong) - check the last 10 seconds as Bono's on his knees, you see Edge in the background...



  10. I am sure it's wrote down somewhere, for insurance purposes. But other than that - I don't no that it isn't that they aren't sure or not more than they probably don't care as much as us fans do. =O)

    Edge is using the 1962 Stratocaster (tobacco finish) for SBS and Pride. I think it is the one used for I Still Haven't Found... during Popmart. But notice he's using one of the black and white Strats for ISHFWILF this tour.

    What tuning is said tobacco 1962 Strat? I will have to check the video and toy around with it at home later.

    The Tobacco finish Strat. is tuned a whole step down (not two steps like I said originally lol), e.g. SBS is in Am these days, whilst Pride is in A (which carries on into MLK) and Edge hasn't changed the way he plays either - why he would in the first place is beyond me lol. I didn't see what he's using for ISHFWILF but I'll take your word for it - it's still in Bb as it was on Vertigo so I'm guessing it's still capo on 2nd fret

    What sort of bass is that? A Warwick?
