I was just wondering if Stephen had an all-time favourite make and model of electric guitar. My brother used to own a Gretsch guitar like Mike Nesmith had in The Monkees. If I had to guess, I'd say he was a Fender Stratocaster man.

The Darkside of the Moon (England really)
Of all the pictures I have ever seen of Steve with a guitar, I have only seen 1 where he is playing an electric - a Gibson SG. The only other 2 guitars I have seen him playing are a generic looking accoustic (although it was probably something exspensive like a Taylor) and his most pictured "Telecoustic" style guitar.

Brian May had his 'Red Special' that he and his father made when he was a kid. That ******** of a guitar gave him his special sound. Interesting. I shouldn't say '********'. I tried to make a guitar from old pickups and other ****. It's not that easy.
Good question! That would be my guess too. My (other) hero, Eric Clapton, uses a Strat, so he'd be in good company
:jammin:
I 'inherited' the 'Live Cream' album from my brother. That album must be one of the best. Clapton is a genius. Hendrix said that himself. Don't forget Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce.

I think Clapton usually uses a Strat nowadays, but in the day he was a Gibson man.
