E-minor7 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 (edited) Here's a ticket to Neil behind an LG-2 and a horseshoe (rhyme). Can't decide whether the bridge is fixed, not talkin' saddle, but the whole thing. Then again I'm small body person. Others might see exactly what's goin' on. https://neilyoungarchives.com/movie-night Edited March 21, 2020 by E-minor7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j45nick Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Looks like maybe a plastic bridge to me. No sign of the bolts outside the bridgepins you would have with a wood bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-minor7 Posted March 21, 2020 Author Share Posted March 21, 2020 Had the same thought - but it could be wooden a replica. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluesKing777 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 (edited) Thanks for the link, Em7! Fantastic! Ibanez in black at the beginning and an Gibson LG1 for the rest... Speaking of old timers, I watched Ole, Ole, Rolling Stones last night.....more fabulousness! The Rollingas come out of the woodwork in Argentina. Here is a tune unplugged from Mick and Keef in the dressing room : BluesKing777. Edited March 22, 2020 by BluesKing777 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-minor7 Posted March 22, 2020 Author Share Posted March 22, 2020 O yeah - seen that one And let's not forget that Neil is such a Stones-fan he once borrowed a tune of them. Can you or anyone else guess, , , eeehhh hear the mother track. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may know better. . Very low light in the footage but I couldn’t see the internal brace through the middle that you see in LG2/3s. And the strings on both Ibanez and Gibson sounded like the ones they were born with! But the whole production was just cool for the non coolness. My opinion. BluesKing777.

ratherbwalkn Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I know this is a Gibson site but I thought I would share this lifetime classic, Im not a brand loyalist more a tone addict. And all brands have THAT tone for me, I just have to find them. Im sure most people have seen this video but this one seem to stand the test of time along with the other posted videos, thanks Ive really enjoyed listen to original works by some of the fine players here, and its fun to see and hear some of the old classics, for me. I think our own music has been influenced by a lot of those great old songs, Again thanks for the music, now I need to return to my search for that special tune. Cheers and I hope you all stay safe and keep on picking , All of this is IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously not so easy with a big string section, but the guitar isn't that critical in those sections of the song in any case. That looks like a huge flatpick that Page is using here.

Yes, it's a very intimate almost private scene. And that stative ain't seen every day. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bozz Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Some great videos in this thread. I'll add another classic from the 60's, pared down and played by the fire. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livemusic Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 To me, it was strange when Neil was walking around, facing / not facing the camera... huge audio quality differences. I suppose I should salute quirky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I'll say OUCH for him - and then remind us that he actually had a discrete and unplayed J-45 under the clazzic BBC-session just after his big break. That's looong time ago so he could have forgotten and lost G-overvue. Never seen him with 1 single slope Gibson during all these years. He might need to lurk here.

The Gibson he is playing there is probably a B-25, and someone(Neil?) conflated B-25 and J-45. There's plenty of folks who think every Gibson is a J-45, and every Martin is D-28.

Now there's a bit of confusion on the line. Wasn't the B-25 the same as the LG-2, only with a new name. As falcon-eyed BK777 noticed on March 22, the new Neil-guitar hasn't got the mid-seem-brace, which would make it an LG-1. Into a little sherlocking here 🔎 - not because of the times, , , but because of the place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
