    It's on the G-string.

    Nice one chap - well, to be fussy, one would say that such a setup would be in keeping with ZooTV and PopMart versions no tuning down for the latter 2 tours, eh? ) - not to mention that it's in Gb on pretty much every UTEOTW backing track out there...
    But yeah, again, thanks mate!

    Hey, it's U2 related! U2 loved The Clash. Edge inducted them into the R&R HOF, and Bono sang snippets of "Rock The Casbah" during "Sunday Blood Sunday" on the Vertigo tour.

    Gotta love The Clash. Okay, you don't "gotta" but ya SHOULD!


    (starts riff to London calling)
  3. Anyone got a backing track for Electric Co., á la the album? I've got a 'live' one based on the Chicago DVD version, but I just want a simple one without vox or random audience lol.

    Good sir, I do believe that all that caffeine has risen up from the depths and caught you in the clappers!

    Well, that sorted that one out then.

    It must be noted that we haven't quite kept on ourselves on track with regard to the theme of this particular thread...

    While The Edge has two refrigerator sized racks full of effects and goodies, Bono has an assortment of toys too. The fact that there is some amount of thought to this shows that Bono does actually play a bit of guitar. Sure he's no The Edge but he's far better than most give him credit.

    Here's a bit more of Bono's Vertigo tour goodies...

    T'is a bit odd that Bono was travelling with FOUR Gretsch Irish Falcons and TWO Gigson Elvis Presley Doves, being that he played less guitar on Vertigo than he had since... probably before The Joshua Tree tour.

    I know that was some ways back, but could you describe in some detail Bono's rack and signal path? And does anyone here know why he hasn't been playing nearly as much guitar as he used to?

    And-- I'm looking into getting either a Vox AC30 or AC50. Any thoughts on this?
