![]() Originally, Valentine was in New York City at 30th Street Guitars to buy the Jazzmaster-esque model, but all they had at the time was the Telecaster-esque model so his first Fano was the TC6, which became one of his favorite go-to guitars. Mike Mogis, Valentine's friend from back in Nebraska, was using one and a Fano and he really dug the guitar’s vibe and feel when he was messing around with Mike's. ![]() He used this particular 6-string on "She Will Be Loved" because it starts with a jazzy intro using the neck pickup and when the song goes into overdrive he kicks into the bridge position and cranks it up. During his seemingly never-ending search for the right hollowbody, a fellow guitarist turned him onto Collings Guitars' I-35 and he was thoroughly impressed with how the guitar plays and how warm it sounds. ![]() ![]() James has been a quest to score a vintage '60s Gibson ES-335 and hasn't found the right one yet. ![]()
