“I’ve probably had an equal number of guitars stolen as what I’ve sold”: Joe Perry names the desert-island pickup that nobody talks about, explains why there are no bad tones, and makes an appeal for the cheap guitar he foolishly sold and wants back

Joe Perry of Aerosmith plays live with a beat-up old Mosrite-esque Danelectro with a white finish.

Joe Perry has one of the most epic guitar collections on the planet, and we’re not just talking just primo vintage unicorns, ’59 Gibson Les Paul Standards, ’62 Stratocasters, and all that collector’s gold. He’s got all kinds of weird guitars.

He likes oddball electric guitars, strange shapes with reverse headstocks, finishes that look like they’ve been recovered from the ocean.
