Palace Revolution 2000
Andy Babiuk and Greg Prevost are huge Stonesfans, and about as good as anyone I can think of to do this book.

Their Beatle gear guide is essential. If the Stones book is half as good it will be fantastic. Looking forward to it.

Can`t wait....
Well I can, because I have been, for what seems like forever...
But I'd rather not wait any longer, please.

It's funny because I am a total gearhead but the Stones are one band where I never really seem to be interested in their gear. Keith Richards loves his guitars for sure but I always had the impression that amps and effects were never a priority for him. I mean in the mid-seventies they signed a deal with Ampeg for their amplifiers which I always thought odd since Ampeg is primarily known for their bass amps.
Still, I will most probably get this book as I have the Beatles one and it is very cool.

That`s the same impression I have about KR. But I also find it interesting that he can play with such a raw and nice sound without lots of effects.He has made his own sound just with the use of the amps it seems. But maybe this book will reveal something new to me regarding his sound..
Someday soon I hope to get to see the movie "it might get loud" with Jack White, The Edge and Jimmy Page. Three guitar players with different views on the use of guitareffects. Of what I have seen so far from that movie it seems J.White uses very little effects, much the same as KR. And I like it Real rocknroll is dry sound right from the amp. But still, it sure sounds good with some effects now and then...

It Might Get Loud is great!
I always appreciated the fact that Keith Richard's sound is in his fingers, not in the effects or guitars he uses. I know he loves Telecasters through a Fender Twin Reverb and I believe the signal goes through clean. I don't think many people study him as they would Clapton or Page mainly I think because Keef is all about the groove which is something you can't teach.
