I always find it odd to watch Bucket play on his videos, as visually it looks like he only uses two long fingers and they look very "stiff" - but they can't be as he's moving freely and easy between the frets, it's just a visual thing I think.
I'm curious @Bucket what guitar is that ?
@darcym It's a Gibson Flying V, a Faded model from 2009 but modified with a pair of @TheGuitarWeasel 's excellent Winterizer Firebird-style pickups. I don't use it as much as I should but I love it.
To be fair, lots of their songs have a great solo
Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
Anyone doubting Justins chops or indeed Dans rhythm playing is clearly deaf, or just being deliberately provocative (or stupid). It might not be your thing, but you can't call their abilities. PTL is a superb rock album, the others are great too but more patchy. The solo in One Way Ticket winds me up cos the song and riff is amazing.
My head said brake, but my heart cried never.
Love Justins guitar work, the latest album is fantastic too

LOVED the Darkness. Must have seen them about 20 times, back in the day.
Now watching Dan’s gear on FleaBay and wondering whether it’s be a lame fanman thing to put a bid in or actually quite cool.
Gonna sit down and play IBIATCL while I ponder it
Yes... exactly what occurred to me listening to Bucket playing the lead. Seemed a bit Queen-ish (the lead... not @Bucket !!!)
Well-played and there's more to their music than people realise
Nice playing as always @Bucket.
