Re: Not really a B-52s fan, BUT!
Ricky's the whole reason why I'm here, I love his guitar technique. I think he had at least eight different Mosrite guitars, You might find this topic interesting if you want to know about his guitars. Too bad two of the pictures are missing. One had him playing a Joe Maphis double enck (And a MK V was in the background) And the other had him holding an unknown Mo guitar (Which was turned away from the camera) While kneeling near two MK Vs.

Not many people know just what Ricky did, Its not hard to play like he did but its very hard to detect his technique just listening to the first record. You'd never know unless you were listening to Rock Lobster very carefully towards the end, That song is now in Rock Band 3 and even Harmonix missed some of the guitar parts when they charted the song. I think this topic will explain a lot about what he did...

I was someplace recently, and I heard a B-52 song. I recognized them right away. I have no idea what the song is but it sounded really good!
