How do the newer reissues compare to the original vintage instruments?
Sometimes a new cheapie can be really cool and just sound right. It’s never going to be exactly like a vintage guitar because you can’t recreate the aging. But some of my reissue Teles and Strats can rock with the best of the old ones. What kind of music do you listen to? Jazz, classical, and blues most of the time. I don’t really listen to any current stuff. I usually have the radio tuned to a classical or jazz station. It’s therapeutic – music that makes me feel good. I find rock music very annoying. It makes me want to turn it down all the time. When I do put on an album, I’ll put on something like Mozart or Robben Ford. Do you ever listen to your own records? I like to leave it alone once I’ve done it, although I did listen to the stuff we did recently quite a bit, but I can’t play it anymore. My girlfriend plays it all the time, so I hear it around the house, but it would be really cool to hear it on the radio. Any chance the band will record a new Bad Company album in the future?
