Is it just me or this guitar has nothing to do with Ritchie's playing style? Thank god he bought a Strat, haha

@matileo19 One quote: It's just a rythm-play from Blackmore. He just stay on the same notes for 3 minutes, but try to listen to the rhythm formula. You should try to play that and after one will reconsider what you said.

これは貴重な古い絵だ、ジョンがクラシックとロックで壮大な夢を­持っていた頃の貴重な絵でした。

@33COOLMAN33 is very the best or not ?

I really love this solo of his. More than three minutes of six-string perfection. The biggest crime Deep Purple did was to not give the man enough space to highlight his talent, especially in the studio recordings.

This video show why he's one of Rock's greatest guitarists.

@tiozenopoder still sounded fucking awesome none the less

[tiozenopoder]

@Spahgeet Yay, just did it (watch the video) and yeah, you're right. Great sound!

[Spahgeet]

@tiozenopoder Yeah, that is what's cool about some of those semi hollow bodies. They can surprise you with their aggressive tones sometimes. Clapton used to play one in cream when he wasn't playing his SG. Check out Claptons solo in the video of him playing yer blues with John Lennon.

@Spahgeet Well, as a bassist, I think any guitar is very confortable and soft ^^

I was just saying that is very strange to see Richie playing like if fire would start from it, using a guitar who looks more suitable to a sweet song and stuff

[Spahgeet]

@tiozenopoder I don't know man, I play a strat almost religiously, but I have a semi hollow body like the one that he's playing, and it is one of the few other guitars that I feel instantly comfortable on.
