    The screaching intro to "Gone"? Edge refers to that as the 747 sound. And that is pretty much what it sounds like - a jet engine/siren.

    Per Sept 1997 Guitar World and Flood... "It's him using his Korg SDD 3000 delay heavily feedback and then going through a couple of different fuzz pedals and a Whammy pedal. One of the fuzz pedals was a "Fuzz Face". He used a semi-acoustic guitar - either an Epiphone or a Gretsch with that setup to get that sound."

    So while Flood isn't 100% sure on the guitar, chances are it was either the Gibson ES330 or one of the two Gretsch Country Gents that Edge was using around that time. (One was either a 1964 or 1965 [seen it quoted by either vintage] and the other was a 1967 Country Gent.)

    When playing it live, Edge activates it on a sequencer. But per Dallas, Edge remakes the sequnces for certain things ever few shows.

    I'd hdave to double check. Most likely E flat.

    And on the Ric 12 string. Although for your own purposes any decent sounding guitar will do. Have you SEEN the price of Rics these days? Sheeeesh!
  12. the screech intro is badass
