[jazzguitar] Re: Signature models


Goosenberg, Eric
 

Pat Metheny plays the Ibanez Pat Metheny model as his basic electric guitar
live and in recordings, and has done so for the last couple of years. His
old ES-175 was beaten to shreds and has basically been retired, according to
his own comments. My recollection from reading about it is that he had a
significant part in the construction of both Ibanez Pat Metheny models.

Also, the one time that I saw Joe Pass live, I'm pretty sure that he played
the Epiphone. Larry Coryell had both an archtop and a flattop acoustic by
Cort when I saw him in a small club about a year ago, but I'm not sure how
closely they compare to Cort's model(s) that carry his name.

Hi there,

What's the point of signature models if the endorsing artists do not
play
them? I am not sure about the Pat Metheny though. Especially the lower end
PM did not impress me and again I doubt Pat would ever play one. And there
are countless other examples.
