Holy shit... I don't think I've ever seen him without the beard and such. He DOES look like Turturro!

Haha, serious brainfart on my part. I'm even a Zappa fan, I'll play you Echidna's Arf or Bobby Brown Goes Down right now!

Which song mentions it? I know he references a strat in Joe's Garage. . .

Unreleased song by the Skyhooks mentions a " Fender Jaguar", probably should start a thread on guitars being mentioned in tunes

In 68 I bought an axe at the local music shop
Took it home and tuned it up and I began to bop
Played that thing all night and day each fret from neck to nut
There weren't no riff I did not know no lick I could not cut

In 73 I joined a band and wrote some snappy tunes
Went out to play six nights a week to all you drunken hoons
From Leederville to Bondi the news it travelled far
That maybe we could play that 1976 guitar

Wah wah pedal old Vox amp Marshall and a Fender
Plug em in and tune em up it's the sound we all remember
In 74 we got tight in 75 we starred
Then we knew we had to play that 1976 guitar

All the way to number one the music did not stop
We were high and mighty but it's lonely at the top
Then one night I met a girl at the Sebel bar
And she taught me how to play that 1976 guitar

Wah wah pedal old Vox amp Marshall and a Fender
Plug em in and tune em up it's the sound we all remember
We were coming close close but no cigar
Then I found the key to play that 1976 guitar

Ooh its been a long time
Since I've opened up that case
Plugged it in and gave the next door neighbours just a taste

I know we weaved some magic up upon that stage
And somewhere in the spotlight I think we came of age
But I learnt one simple lesson - No matter who you are
Maybe you can play that 1976 guitar

Wah wah pedal old Vox amp Marshall and a Fender
Plug em in and tune em up it's the sound we all remember
In 74 we got tight in 75 we starred
Then we learned to play that 1976 guitar
If you walk the walk no matter who you are
You can learn to play that 1976 guitar
Could be a Gibson Les Paul or Fender Jaguar
Just as long as she's a 1976 guitar
Just as long as she's a 1976 guitar

Pretty sad there's no such thing as a 1976 jaguar. Dammit! Plans foiled. Again!

Oh sorry, turns out he doesnt mention his JM in a song - my brother changes the lyrics when he sings it

Its Fender Champ and Stratocaster with a wammy bar, ah well!

I love Thrice. I got to meet them years ago, when Their second album had just come out. Really cool guys and great musicians.
