mick was always a special player even at 18 when i first met him he stood out from the croud
he had a gibson 330 which he loaned me for a set in beverley regal
then he had a white telcaster (he was into jeff beck)and then a black les paul (later shaved to maple) bought from hammonds in hull from another legend who worked there ricky kemp from steeleyespan
mick was such a quite sincere guy so sadly missed rip
QUOTE; "and then a black les paul (later shaved to maple)"
My best friend when I was younger was into Mick Ronson & he also was a guitarist w/ a Black Les Paul did the same to his guitar because he idolized Mick so much & actually played like him & he also was into Jeff Beck back in the Yardbird days.
@gav240z I own a pre-owned ´75 LP Custom which I bought for $600 here in Mexico City 10 years ago. And also I have a pre-owned LP Studio which I bought for $500 3 years ago in Japan...my LP Studio sounds better than my LP Custom and it also weights less! Anyway, any Gibson sounds better than any other manufactuarer's...mm...and you´re going to need a Marshall too...(I prefer Fender), good luck!
There were very few guitarists to match the soul and dynamism of mick ronsons guitar playing. I think he was the most fantastic soloist to have ever lived. His palying on a width of a circle was pure unabated brilliance. without mick there would have been no david. When bowie came up with his songs they were good, mick made them great. Just listen to his playing on the song 'time' from alladin sane..you were the business mick, sadly mi
Guitar work on Time - pure Ronson magic. Such a shame almost all the time it's behind vocals, "song within song" as so many times before and since. I wish I could listen to original instrumental track...
We enjoyed seeing Ronno's album cover at the very last image...by the way, that is Ronno's sister in the photo laying down after being shot.Little 'triv' there...
love you and we miss you Ronno...your daughter is lovely and you live on , you are immortal now...you knew that Ronno....R.I.P. Ronno....all of us in Toronto...
Where can I find the lyrics to "Growing up and I'm fine"?

Correction, he made a difference to us... Most people don't even know he exists, it's truly sad.

It´s interesting that all my guitar heroes plays Gibson and I love those guitars!
Mick Ronson´s sound is still the best LP sound (in the sense of rock)ever heard for me since my youth in the 70´s.

@NaritaLab - man this is why I want a Gibson but they are so expensive compared with a Stratocaster. Also they are pretty heavy too.
