    I have a friend who bought his guitar there.




    The thing is, I'd really like to buy it there, since I had my work experience there this spring.
  2. Interesting bit in the Achtung Baby Uber Box set book...

    Danny Lanois is mentions that it was he that came up with/played the "One" intro on a green Gretsch.

    Presumably, Bono's late `50's Country Club; which Edge later used in the "Magnificent" video.

    Makes sense as it is finger picked and Danny doesn't use plectrums.

    There's a short scene of him playing the intro in "From the Sky Down", the first real glimpse of that melody that we ever hear, but I can't be certain it was on that guitar. Obviously it probably wasn't the genesis of that line, but if you're interested in seeing him play it, its definitely in there.
  4. ...You can hear Danny's bits on the Telecaster on "One" too.

    Shows what I've heard him say... that he does play a lot on the albums.

    On page spread before CD listings start, you can see Larry with what appears to be that green Gretsch - upper left corner.
  6. I love to see Larry playing guitar.
  7. Dear guitar fellows, I want to declare you all:

    I am in love.

    An extremely gorgous thinline with P-90 pickups (one Seymour Duncan and one custom made) and semi-hollow ash body.

    Damn hell, YEAH.


    Christmas can't come soon enough...........
  8. Gorgeous, Sergio. Love the finish, excellent choice.
  9. Something just stood up.
  11. Very very nice Sergio!

    Right now I'm drooling over the 30th anniversary G&L's. I've never tried a G&L before but I've only heard great things about them. Things like "They're what Fender aspires to be" and so on (only makes sense).

    I just can't decide if I want to go the "strat" (G&L Legacy) or "tele" (G&L ASAT) route.

  12. Thank you, Victor, Joe, Cal, Alex for the warm welcome to my new love

    Alex, I have to say that, while both of them are absolutely amazing (and GL's are indeed regarded as excellent pieces of guitarship), as an Arctic Monkeys I have a soft spot for the white Strats. If you've seen any early video by the Monkeys you'll know why

    EDIT. Just in case you havent: Dancefloor or Shoes. That's why I love arctic white Strats
