I was given a guitar by James Dean Bradfield [from Manic Street Preaches] who is an incredible guitarist. He was using this strange guitar at a festival and I asked him what it was. He said that this guy who used to work for Gibson has a company called Fret King. So James spoke to him and they sent me this white Fret King Ventura guitar, and it almost looks like a drawing… or like what people in the 90s imagined the future to be like. Or like if I asked my niece to draw me an electric guitar. I love it, it’s so nice to play and it’s so strange looking.
