Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

That Miguel guy has put Squire's parts under a microscope. Really good work, though I could never invest that much time perfecting someone else's style. Not since I was a teen anyway. He's got a bunch of other Yes covers posted. Chris used his non-rev on that tune, hence the T-Bird.

Interesting info. The modern bird does a decent job of sounding like the original NR on record no?

Ok, not exactly a Thunderbird but a '60s Epiphone Embassy Deluxe - don't see too many of them:

I don't know about horrible but I'd agree with horribly overrated.

At least it was more enjoyable than her latest endeavor with her boyfriend :-\

That was unpleasant (IMHO). I've heard her name before, if that's representative of her guitar work, I'll pass.

To be fair, nobody sounds very good playing a gold PRS.

But a PRS looks good. It's the kind of guitar that a perfect-haired werewolf drinking a piña colada at Trader Vic's would be seen with.

 Not the best audio here, not surprising since it's an inexpensive camera. Anyway, we're having some Bowie fun, I'm playing the Jackson.
