albertjohn Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 I was looking up some tab on the Foo's website and found Dave Grohl playing my guitar. How dare he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drathbun Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Is that another one in the stand in front of him? Can anyone say GUITAR HOG? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnt Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Don't think he's playing yours Aj! Its Drathburns isn 't it? Or cunks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jefleppard Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 not sure whats on the stand. same headstock logo as the swd but it has a dot fretboard. my guess, after extensive study and thought, is the j-185ec (ovankol). i came to this conclusion on my own and did not look it up on the GC website. really, i did. but, in case you were wondering.... http://www.guitarcenter.com/Gibson-J-185-EC-Ovangkol-Cutaway-Acoustic-Electric-Guitar-515045-i1173803.gc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albertjohn Posted September 4, 2008 Author Share Posted September 4, 2008 Yes I did wonder what it was. The shape of the cutaway looked rather unusual but your right Cunk, I'd say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Player Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 I am fairly certain that Dave Grohl and the Foo Fighters are personally responsible for the scarcity of Gibsons in the UK market currently. I don't know where I heard it from, but rest assured they are trying to buy up all of the Gibsons! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoverp Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Guys and gals I bought this DVD its called the Foo Fighters Skin and Bones. Unbelievable concert. great up close shots of him playing all acoustics( great Gibson shots) and accompianied by more than his standard band for musicians..GREAT GUITAR playing footage and an all around phenominal concert...way out of the norm for the FOO boys....Unplugged! ( well still acoustics plugged in but you know what I mean!) Definately worth the price of the DVD.. I bought it on Amazon.com Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gearbasher Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I just saw a Bloomingdale's ad in today's NY Post. The guy in the ad was playing a SWD (cutaway). I thought it was odd for a bloomingdale's ad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( well still acoustics plugged in but you know what I mean!) Definately worth the price of the DVD.. I bought it on Amazon.com Patrick Patrick, I have the cd and agree it's an outstanding collection of songs. I like the acoustic stuff more and when they tone down the heavy stuff to acoustic. e.g Times Like These. Everlong. There's some superb acoustic work on their lastest album too - But Honestly, Let it Die. I'm learning more and more of his stuff and some of the chords he comes up with you sometimes think " that's not going to work!" but it does. He's a phenomonal musician and writer (for a drummer!)and despite all the hype surrounding the band (they're massive in the UK) I've heard a few interviews with Dave and he's a very grounded and humble person. All round splendid chap it would seem. I'd even bet he was a cricket fan too. You may have spotted, I'm a big fan of his work - and his taste in guitars!
