Re:Classical Gas

<t>beat up guitar. Yea I don't think the guitar has that much to do with the way Tommy sounds. I think he could pick up anything and sound great. <br/> As for playing like that. My project for 2010 is to play that. Song does not look that hard. <br/> <br/> And I think those who think Tommy plays too...
