(3 of 4)

The Moog Lap Steel
Yes, the Moog lap steel.

Gibson Jeff Tweedy Signature SG
Wilco's Jeff Tweedy gets a signature Gibson SG at Winter NAMM 2012. The Blue Mist finish is gorgeous and it's hard to lay off the Cippolina vibrato licks with that Lyre vibrato in hand. Sweet!

Lowden F-35 Fan Fret Prototype
Lowden's F-35 fan fret prototype looks bound for production and the combination of reclaimed redwood top and Honduran Mahogany back and sides sounds distinctly Lowden -- warm, detailed, and really responsive.

VHT's Special 12/20RT
VHT's new Special 12/20RT has 6V6 tube-driven reverb with a depth switch and tube-driven tremolo with slow/fast range switch. The amp is available in a head or combo and comes with a two-button foot switch for the tremolo and reverb. The head will retail for $649.

on 01/22/2012 		Not to mention Cippolina's idiosyncratic amp setup, which helped with his unique sound. But yes, doing the homework is always in order.

Cippolina used a Bigsby on his SG..For those of us who saw "Quicksilver Messenger Service" I know it wasn't a Maestro Vibrola on his SG Std. but a Bigsby B-5.
