Pro's Touring with MIJ Les Pauls

GuN'R · 04-21-2011, 12:07 AM

Just read this interview with the Duff today, he talks a little about taking his Burny LP on tour and about Sparrow guitars. For anyone who may be interested...

Duff McKagan: Appetite For Construction - Premier Guitar

It's nice to hear about pro musicians using gear that isn't mainstream and not unaccessible to the rest of us non-pros. Just goes to show it's more the musician and the heart behind it than the instrument and the disposable income to purchase it.

EVH with a Ibanez Destroyer and maybe a MIJ Strat with a Fender logo put on it in the wrong position.
He hasn't toured with the Ibanez Destroyer since the early 80s though.
