So many artists have a signature sound. Mike McCready has the univibe in his solos, Kurt Cobain had the Distortion/Chorus mix, Tom Morello has the wah, Hendrix had the wah. Bruce Springsteen, B.B. King, Tony Iommi, Angus Young, and Eric Clapton have their signature guitars. What are some other "signatures" to various artists?

    Tom Scholz (Boston) The Rockman.
    My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.
