Hi guys,

does anyone know from which show this picture of John playing his 12 string is? I would be very interested in hearing John play 12 string live!

Also does anyone know on which song does John uses that guitar (or 12 string in general), besides The Past Recedes and Central (I think). I am a massive 12 string guitar fan!

John played a Martin & Co. 12-string guitar when he recorded "Breaking The Girl" of Blood Sugar.

Pretty sure the 12-string in the BSSM Sessions picture is a Maton 12-String, attached is a pic where you can almost read Maton on the headstock (certainly doesn't look like a Martin logo) and also a pic of a 70's Maton 12-String, a 1973 CW80/12 to be exact (from wikipedia).
