- Enigma about the guitar on Misfire
-
From Sebastian;
I've made an interesting discovery, I was trying to figure what guitar had
John used for 'Misfire' (I wan't sure if it was a Tele or Strat) and sent it
to some experts, who told me that it is too warm to be a Fender.
Now, which guitar can be warmer than a Fender? the Red Special. We know
thanks to the credits that John played "almost all guitars", and since there
are about 13 electric and just one double tracked acoustic I don't think
John just played the 12 string Ovation. So he must have used the Red Special
for part of his 7 or 8 electric guitars.
I'm not totally sure, although the last fills are so obviously the RS.
There's another possibility: Gibson Les Paul. It's the most similar sound
you can get from a commercial guitar, no wonder why Brian had it as back-up.
Would you give him (and me) your helping hand?
