Riri you look stoned
Richard interview from Guitar Magazine June issue.
According to this interview, his main guitars are:
Gibson ES-355 ‘67, bought in LA instead of ES-335 ‘63 which was stolen in Boston in 1997.
Les Paul Custom was stolen in 1997 too so he got one in LA.
full original Fender Jazzmaster ‘59, bought in 2001 and his favourite. Most part of ‘Snowblind’ was played by this.
And he said: he doesn’t mind effectors if guitars and amps are great, but, now he tries to change most of his effectors and he didn’t change effectors since 1996 so he’s excited.
and… ‘Dawn Chorus’ was played in the same way as ‘Together’.
Anyone up for the full translation?
