WHILE BONO IS BEING BUSY IN NEW YORK WHAT ARE THE REST DOING??

Well, The Edge participated in the movie/documentary "It Might Get Loud" and now he explains how his guitar sounds in a BBC programme called "The Story of the Guitar".
The Edge introduces his iconic guitar, the Gibson Explorer he has had with him most of his career, and explains how the band craft songs from the sounds he finds.




In the second video he tells us how his guitars sound differently in songs like "Mysterious Ways" and "The Fly" and explains a bit how the U2 characteristic sound may be born.He also
introduces the rack of instruments used in an average U2 gig; 21 in only one gig!!!! He also confesses he prefers "oldies" rather than new guitars (many of his guitars belong to the late 50´s or early 60´s to the 70's)
