Im listening to One on the Vertigo DVD and i wonder why Bono's guitar has so much overdrive this tour for One. I think, for One, it sounds kinda shitty. Anyone esle notice this?

It's accually a very nice guitar and it sounds amazing. If I was rich, i would def. get one, it wouldn't be my 1st choice, but id get one. You're right he does need to play more on tour.
Yeah but Edge is supposed to play both parts!JMScoopy said:The Fly was meant to be played live with 2 guitars.

Maybe it didnt sound so great on the DVD....but to my ears after seeing 13 shows from different spots...if you are way back in the arena you dont hear much of it...but if you are in the ellipse you do, which suggests to me that his stage volume is as high or higher than Edge's.....as for using any type of overdrive effect, I would doubt it, save what he can achieve with an AC30. He's not plugged into any effects boxes, he's going straight to the amp.
I dont know how I feel about One really....I kinda like the little flourishes he's adding to it...
I understand his pain...it can get uncomfortable to just be the guy with the mic...playing guitar once in a while makes me feel better for some reason..
JMScoopy said:You mean to tell me you would dislike Bono to play acoustic guitar during WOWY or ISHFWILF like the JT tour? Or electric during ABOY, like it should be played?

bono readily admits that he's not a very good guitar player.
