The composer for Good, Bad, Ugly; Fistfull of $; is listed as having an orchestra and composing for the "new Fender guitar". The jag?

Anyone know what these tunes were played on?

The Jaguar would be my first guess as well.

A Jaguar through a '65 Twin Reverb is this picker's guess.

Hugo Montenegro did good.

Found this with google.....

We have it from several reliable sources that the principal guitar heard on Fistful was a Fender Stratocaster played by Alessandro Alessandroni, a remarkable musician who was also the celebrated whistler and director of the vocal chorus that Morricone repeatedly used. On subsequent soundtracks (For a Few Dollars More [Per Qualche Dollaro in Piú]; GBU; OUaTitW) the principal guitarist was Bruno Battisti D'Amario, possibly on a Jazzmaster. Both guitarists are still active today.


I hope this helps, but somehow I doubt it will......

It has to be true, after all, it's on the internet right? :roll:

Good info. I remember those themes from the Clint Eastwood movies.
