- Yep, sure does :-). He's one of my faves tooo... The amount of
- control he has to have to keep that guitar from shaking itself
- apart is amazing :-). It was built by Phish's sound man, Paul
- Languedoc (Mike's bass is also made by Paul).

- Well, a hollow body or semi hollow body would give you that
- "infinite sustain/feedback of any note" feeling, but it would definitely
- be harder to play due to the amount of string muting you would need to
- do :-). His amp is a Mesa Boogie MKIII head that is plugged into
- a hastily constructed 2x12 cab (I think it's 2). He's recently
- started using 2 MarkIIIs. He also uses a volume pedal, and 2
- Tube Screamers (on top of the MarkIII crunch :-).

- Hope this helps...
