@tomthefunky It's a James Trussart.

Carlos was in a great band in LA in the early 80s called "Top Jimmy and the Rythem Pigs". One of the great live bands to see. Barrel House rock.

Chris Spedding is actually best know for his classic UK single " Motor Bikin' " from 1975 although it was not released in the US.

Check it out.

BTW, I can highly recommend "Straight from the Heart" by Carlos Guitarlos, one of my all-time favourite albums.

@godofslumber You know, I have been looking into this. If you see the pistols playing- or miming- Jones' hands don't seem to tie in with the SECOND break at all. It sounds like the second guitar break is overdubbed. I watched that vid you mentioned, and still think the 2nd break was a session guy. No amateur could get a perfect long feedback like that. No disrespect to Jones, mind.

Wow, that's a Zemaites[sic] guitar Chris is playing. They were hand made and only the top guys could afford them. Ron Wood played them almost exclusively in the seventies. Chris played on Jump Into The Fire by Harry Nilsson.

@godofslumber Okay I am cool with that, thanks for the info

[godofslumber]

@incongra Yeah it was- He had been playing guitar approx. 18 months when he recorded that album. It's all him- He's got a vid on here showing you all the Bollocks tunes & how he came up with them. Spedding did not play on that record...

[incongra]

@godofslumber no it is correct. The myth is that it's a myth.....

Okay who did it then? ..... because it certainly wasn't Jones

[godofslumber]

@incongra WRONG! That's a myth-

[ladyblue614]

WOW!! COOL!
