That's interesting that he is playing an M-20. I wonder if it's the same one Neil Young used on the "Le Noise" album which Lanois produced...

 

[krysh]

Yep it is, and on the following tour. Interesting stories in the interview.

 

[GGJaguar]

Livingston Taylor with his older brother.

 

[Prince of Darkness]

Rod Stewart with Ron Wood on Letterman, guy in the band with a 12 string dreadnaught with Chesterfield logo. Pretty good version of "Maggie May":

A much better view of the Starfire Bass in this vid at 43:53.
Also, at 46:37 is Andy Robinson playing a Guild 12-string (F-212XL?)

Pete Townshend with an F-512 backing up Alexi Murdoch (who reminds me a bit of Nick Drake):

Pete Townshend with an F-512 backing up Alexi Murdoch (who reminds me a bit of Nick Drake):

While listening to Alexi, I have also thought he sounded like Nick Drake...Not trying to copy him, just his voice and style are similar...

Yes, tone , phrasing & even the melodies he sings, it seems to me. Could be just the couple of songs I've heard - I need to hear more for him, only discovered him yesterday after hearing a song in the closing minutes of a House episode!

 

[lonesome picker]

Check out the fretboard inlays on Townsand's axe. Those are not F-512 "blocks and triangles" They are the nifty custom jobs seen only on a

F-612........

Woohoo!

Watched the two episodes of Billy Connolly's "Made in Scotland" on Amazon Prime last night and learned he was in a band called The Humblebums with Gerry Rafferty and Tam Harvey before he went down the full-time comedian road.

The episodes included several scenes of him playing his Guild 'burst jumbo:



He's not a bad banjo player, either.

 

[Prince of Darkness]

Francis Rossi, long time singer and guitarist of Status Quo, promoting his forthcoming tour. Looks like a M-120

 

[Stuball48]

Hoyt Axton on The Dukes of Hazzard.

He playing a Guild???? Which model

 

[Prince of Darkness]

He playing a Guild???? Which model

I believe it's a F-50

I've been listening to a bunch of Elle Cordova (former stage name Reina del Cid) and Toni Lindgren's covers tonight and several of the earlier ones feature a GAD-25. This one really gets going in the second half:

 

[Opsimath]

The Guild shows up in appearance at about 1:35, but you can hear it before that and it sounds full and rich, and added immensely to the performance.

 

[Minnesota Flats]

Looks like a couple of T-Birds and a Jet Star Bass...maybe even a couple of Guild amps(?):



Apologies if this one was already posted, but I'm not gonna wade through 21 pages to check...
