Not a Tribute from the photo, maybe a more authentic repro to come, I hope...

From what I gather reading Nile's twitter feed, Paul was there to discuss further changes.

Who really knows for sure?

I guess one could say that he "Got Lucky" :D



"She's up all night 'til the sun
I'm up all night to get some
She's up all night for good fun
I'm up all night to get lucky

We're up all night 'til the sun
We're up all night to get some
We're up all night for good fun
We're up all night to get lucky"

What a cool video and Nile seems like a nice person. I hope Fender does an artist model of his Strat. :D

Well, maybe not the recorded version. On a recent documentary with Chic, he/they did a lot of the hits and played it.

True, but apparently the Daft Punk fellas asked him to bring his Plexiglass Guitarman.
It certainly looked like the Hitmaker at Glastonbury. :D

Plexiglass is heavier than ash and maple, and slightly heavier than water, true. But my guess is that it's also thinner.

I had an original 71 Armstrong for many years. Great sustain for playing rock but about 14 pounds, maybe more. Not sure about the one Nile uses.
