"Guitarist" backstage exclusive with Bon Jovi

did you notice Portugal's scarf on jon's guitar rack ?

Looks like they're both playing a G#m (barre at 4th fret, 6th fret on A and D string), and I play a G#m in SIBSN, so could be.

Ryan, someday I may be able to identify all the guitars the guys use, but I feel quite certain that I will NEVER understand what you just wrote! LOL I know (and accept) my limitations.

Haha exactly right, the chord shape definetely tipped me off to it being SIBSN as well. Good eye.

From my crappy photo, you guys could tell that?

I had a feeling that I should have simplified that, I apologise

You get used to the shapes, I guess. I hate playing minor chords with an E shape barre (which is what they're doing), so it's particularly noticeable for me

It's on the "My life's a bargain basement, all the good shit's gone" and other second lines of the verses.

Oh no -- not on my account. I love when you guys "talk guitar"! I don't get it, but I love it. LOL

Interesting article, thanks for posting. I love that guitar

thanks for the anwers re, that guitar guys., when did richie stop using the triplr neck acoustic?

I actually quite enjoy guessing which songs particular photos are of based on the guitars and chords being played. There's also plenty of other giveaway factors in photos as well such as what key Richie's soloing in, whether Jon has maracas/harmonica, whether the talkbox mic is up/down in the background of shots, signature poses Richie and Jon always use for songs... the list is endless!

Sad I know! I just like looking out for things like that!

As for the triple neck, I haven't seen that since the mid-90s and it was sold on rockstarsguitars.com some time ago if I recall correctly. Mandolin - 12 string - 6string.
