What guitar?

Post by fireglo67 »

This is a classic clip of the Brian Jonestown Massacre.

I know that they have often played all manner of Ric guitars, as well as their usual vox, but does anyone know what guitar Anton the lead singer is playing before it gets smashed in the fight?

I love the conversation at the end.

Girl: "You got hurt?"
Anton: "Yeah..."
Girl: "You got blood on you?"
Anton: "Yeah..."
Girl: "Where from?"
Anton: "From PEOPLES FACES!"

Keep music evil. :twisted:

I think Mark is thinking along the right lines. It's not a Rick. Dig! is a great documentary.

I've seen the movie many times. It may not be that clip, but he does play a Rick 360 (I think) at some point, and so does the lead dude from the Dandy Warhols. They play Gretsches more, though.

Looks like it might be a Framus archtop to me.
