Marc Ford's Guitars
Asked which of his old guitars he misses, he points to his ’63 Tele. “I dearly love that guitar, but it’s hung up somewhere. Over the years, whether I’ve had money or haven’t had money, equipment was always what I bought and it was as an investment so that when times got rough, I’d sell some things off. And there were some phenomenal guitars I’ve had and had to let go… But, you know, they make more.”
Ford also uses Reverend guitars on the road, and a ’59 Historic Les Paul.
"I used a nice guitar Bill Asher built for me, and this Höfner I found; I think it’s a Club 40."
"- What’s the main acoustic you always resort to?
- Well, that’s not here. It’s a Martin D-18. Don’t have that here."
