    73 has the black knobs.


  3. 1972 or 1973. I have heard it referred to by both vintages. Silly Dallas and Edge are trying to confuse us!
  6. 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...



  7. 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?

    It is a WARWICK Stryker. Nice bass, eh?
  12. I just ordered a used Gibson BFG in red. Cheap but needs a complete rewiring. Guess I'll try a Duncan P- Rails in the bridge position. Ah, the feeling to work on a guitar again... can't wait to have it here.
