You know, that one with the hole worn into it? I really like the sound of it and am looking to invest in an electric acoustic in the near future.

It's a Takamine, ain't it?

i think he uses takamine's but for some reason i thought i remember hearing that the one with the hole was different. takamines are good though if your thinking about a new acoustic. but of course if you have enough money those taylor ones are a lot nicer:)

This one looks like it's been through hell!

Kinda makes me feel better about my bashed-up Seagull. Since my friends have seen pics of Franks Tak they've stopped making fun of mine. =)

I'm pretty sure he's had the Takamine forever. I remember when he brought it out at one show, back when he didn't play it often...I think it was Philly in June 15 2000. He might have said something along the lines of it being from the Pixies days.

I think he's been playing the Takamine since the Pixies days. Pretty sure I've got a bootleg Pixies video with that guitar in it.--Jayhawk

the godins are kinda cool though, the one has an output for every string. so you could have like distortion on your g string and no others

I taped a telephone mic in my sisters old, beat up spanish guitar.
apply tremolo by bending whole guitar, some large parts of wood came out and it still sounds groovy.



(do not tell my sister!!)
