Lifeson's other guitars.
Left to right:
Features on: Stick It Out
“This is Big Al. Little Al’s not here, he’s at my home in my office. It’s detuned to drop D. It’s a really heavy guitar with a Floyd Rose and carved neck heel. It’s got some great sting to it.”
Features on: 2112 Overture/The Temples Of Syrinx
“When you compare any of the newer [non chambered, Lifeson signature] production models with this you immediately feel the weight difference. I use this for 2112, tuned down [a whole step].”
Features on: Time Stand Still
“This is something newer PRS have come up with. It replaces the Custom CE with the bolt-on they built for me years ago with the Evans singlecoil pickups. I use it for a very clear, jangly bell-like sound.
“They brought this out at a gig in the States recently and it sounds good - a little more versatile but it has that Fender [style] active kind of element about it.”
Features on: Leave That Thing Alone
“I bought this from PRS in 1991, I think. They sent me a guitar then I ordered a couple. That’s a regular bolt-on, nothing particularly special about it but it has 24 frets and I need it for this song, which was written with that guitar.”
