ribot guitars - non guitarists stop reading
Hey, here's another question on many of the listmembers fav guitarist marc ribot. I know this is some how stupid but guitar players love to speculate over equipment. In Scheuermans film "Sabbath in Paradise" ribot says something like 'let's stop talking, now i'm gonna show you my guitars'. So here's the question: What guitars, effects, amps does the man use? I guess he has a old Gibson ES-135 semiacoustic which he uses with the cubanos. Is that one of those that are completely hollow? With the rootless cosmopolitans he had a surnburst tele, i think it was a ESP. With shrek he used a blue strat, as far as i remember. And on zorn stuff like bar kokhba he used another semiacoustic, a red one? Don't know what that was. In solo concerts he played on a old gibson acoustic (i think i read this somewhere) plus a really fucked up electric which he got from lindsay (or was it sharp?). All of it goes through fender amps mostly, I guess. Couldn't count the effects though, no idea. not much digital stuff. Sorry for boring the non-guitarists, no promotion intended. And i surely know that creating a sound most of all needs a real musician. so cheers martin

when i saw rootless cosmopolitans many many moons ago, he was playing thru an old, probably 40's gibson amp with a pretty minimal effects set up. distortion and maybe a chorus, but not much fancy stuff. i'm blanking on what guitar he was playing, although it might have been a tele. with shrek, he had a volume pedal and distortion for sure, but i was farther back and couldn't see the set-up.

http://www.downtownmusic.net/pictures/picturesrhtml/Marc_Ribot/default.htm He seems to play a bunch of different, often well-loved, guitars; it seems to depend on the context, though he seems to prefer Gibsons. For the record, Im not a guitar player, but my roommate is...I know much more about electric guitars than any sax player probably should, or would want to. Its wonder I havent picked it up by now... ________________________________________ From: zorn-list-bounces+zsteiner=butler.edu@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:zorn-list-bounces+zsteiner=butler.edu@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Sean Westergaard Sent: Wednesday, January 21, 2004 11:04 AM To: Martin Schmitz-Ohrndorf; zorn-list@mailman.xmission.com Subject: RE: ribot guitars - non guitarists stop reading when i saw rootless cosmopolitans many many moons ago, he was playing thru an old, probably 40's gibson amp with a pretty minimal effects set up. distortion and maybe a chorus, but not much fancy stuff. i'm blanking on what guitar he was playing, although it might have been a tele. with shrek, he had a volume pedal and distortion for sure, but i was farther back and couldn't see the set-up.
