Post by juanch »

Hi everybody, why is it that Tom doesn´t use this signature model much? He prefers larger bodies ones?
Thanks!

Petty and Campbell both bounce around quite a bit on what guitars they use on a given song. In terms of Ricks, I think he's tended to use the f-hole one-offs he got a while back:

Or his vintage stuff.

The last two albums have also been more 'riffy' since Campbell got his '59 Burst, so not a whole lot of Rick content.
