Steve Howe's Rick
This is a rare photo of Steve Howe playing a 360MG/12 I am a rabid Yes Fan I have seen 15 shows since the 70's and I have never seen him play a Ric live.

Re: Steve Howe's Rick
from the looks of the staging,i think this may have been from the GFTO tour,and i believe he used the rick on "awaken" at that time. he went to a steinberger guitar for that in later years...i'm not sure if he still even has that rick.....
Re: Steve Howe's Rick
I saw the GFTO tour and to be perfectly honest It was back in 1977 so I can't remember

That's how it should be for the 70's!tallpat1 wrote:I saw the GFTO tour and to be perfectly honest It was back in 1977 so I can't remember
Re: Steve Howe's Rick
According to his book, Steve's Ric was stolen and he would very much like to get it back.
Re: Steve Howe's Rick
Did he ever play a RoMo at any point?
Re: Steve Howe's Rick
I saw them three times on that tour and Howe definatley played a Ric Fireglo 12-string - different from what appears to be a Mapleglo in that photo. He indeed used it on Awaken. Amazing 12-string solo on that one - I'm in awe everytime I hear it. I never ever saw Howe live or in pics with a RoMo, though.

I have a video from the Reunion tour and he straps that 330 on a few times.

Rose Morris, the Uk distributor in the 60's .
Steve does indeed own a Rose Morris 1993 /12 string from July 1964.
but according to his book he hasn't used it properly because all his 12 string prayers where answered when he got a Steinberger

Re: Steve Howe's Rick
Well since he isn't using it properly, he should sell it to one of us! He could donate the money made from it to a music program.jch wrote:"Ok help me out here, what's a RoMo?"
