U2 1980's gear. New old pics.

I'm not sure where the pix were taken. Seems to be from 1983-1984 era.

The white guitar is interesting. I'm not sure what it is. I've not seen any pix of Edge using it.



Same goes for the Ibanez 12-string acoustic.

Awesome pics! A great find.

Oddly enough it does look like that guitar has Fender on the headstock. The Strat with the right pickguard next to Blackie however looks like it has Squier on its headstock.

That does not make it a Fender though. All the more so as several more people do see that the logo is different. Ergo, its a Squier.

No cream LP Custom?

No Washburn Acoustic?

A good while ago I created a thread about Adam's previous Bass tech before Stuart, seems that this question has been answered. Steve Rainford looked after Adam's gear as well as Bono and Edge's.

 

[Edge_Orchestra]

They were a smaller organization back then. And Edge only travelled with a handful of guitars and effects... So I can see how Rainford might take care of all of it.
