Edge's favorite or most used guitar?

[liamcool]

The Gibson Explorer is a 1976 reissue, bought in 1976 (when else?). Just thought I'd point that out.

THE DISCOTHEQUE LES PAUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nah...that's my favourite Edge guitar.

Yeah I would say The Explorer & I have read it was one of his first guitars. Edge is smart enough to use many diff. types of guitars for diff. musical purposes. I think one of the coolest things about Edge is that he plays slide guitar well. He has become very versatile over the years.

sorry to point out ANOTHER mistake with you're original post theu2fly, but,

the guitar that the edge uses for city of blinding lights is different to the guitar that he uses for aboy, crumbs etc that you mentioned

the guitar used for cobl is a gretsch country classic double cutaway model. he has used this in the past (i dont think he has used it since popmart) for please and one during the popmart tour.

the guitar used for aboy, crumbs etc is an epiphone casino. he purchased this guitar prior to the vertigo tour because his old gibson es-335 was one of the guitars damaged in the mentioned flood/storm incident

anybody else know what happend with that stomr/flood? and what other guitars were damaged/destroyed

It was his very 1st guitar , just so you can have an idea , Boy was 75% recorded with it , the very few things which weren't recorded with the Exp , were with a borrowed Strat

I did knew about this ES - 335 of him being lost , and talk about a lost ..... RIP 335 .... I loved that guitar ..... For the non-familiars ..... Remember One in ZOOTV and One Tree Hill ......... Also I may be wrong but he apparently lost that 70s Natural Strat , one Ricken , one Fernandez , one of the B/W strats ......

Gorgeous guitar.



Thanks for clueing me in. I was definitely thinking of the black w/ white pickguard strat. I have one that looks exactly like it! It's a 2004 American Standard Strat though... [/QUOTE




I think the black on black now is a diferent black on black than in the 80's. I believe the original was donated to the Hard rock cafe.
