Johnny Rzeznik in Guitar

>Hey All,
>
>Well I got my new issue of Guitar magazine ( Feb '98) and was happily
>surprised to see that a monthly column called " The Composing Guitarist"
>was featuring Johnny Rzeznik in part 1 of a 2 part segment. It's a fairly
>new column that first appeared in Oct '97 and has previously spotlighted
>the likes of Bob Mould and Karl Wallinger (World Party). ( pretty
>respectable company)
>
>
>It's a great column that provides a little more insight into the writing
>process than you typically get from a general artist interview where they
>inevitably slip in the ol' "So, when you write...which comes first , the
>lyrics or the music?" That's almost as overdone and annoying as asking how
>the band got its name.
>
>
>There's a picture too and if I'm not mistaken, it just may be the
>overhauled "Boing" guitar making an appearance. I could be wrong, but it
>definitely looks like a custom job.... new paint ( a green metallic flake
>type) and it still only has one humbucker in the tailpiece and one control
>knob.
>
>
>And not that it matters or anything but it looks like the guitar was not
>the only one who got an L.A. makeover.

>Happy Holidays!
