Really? I'm impressed!

Fredrik Skavlan is a pretty funny TV host.
You never really know what kind of questions will pop out from his mounth.
JMJ is totally right about ESC. It's expensive and has got that silly "sweede" sticker all over it.

Hmm, he said that he's "going to play a little guitar on his new tour, just in case. And that's actually true."

That should be interesting if it's true. He hasn't played guitar since the late '60s.

except in the Conquistador track story.

He played some heavy distorted guitar riffs on one of the Conquistador EP remixes.

Yeah, sorry, I forgot about that. Also, there are some guitar lines in "A question of blood" I think.

Do you know what's nice about JmJ playing guitar ?
JmJ now has self confidence (to do this)

[Chris96]

I don't know about that. I mean, he used to play in bands in late '60s. I remember he said in a recent interview that he sold his guitar and his guitar amp so he can buy his first VCS3, because he wanted to "leave" the rock sound and get a new, electronic sound. I don't remember the interview, but it's a recent one. Maybe the Native Instruments one.

You can see this on the Track Story video ...

Yes you're right! However I think it's a bit hard to make out if that one came from an artificial synth/software preset (keys) or from "genuin" electric guitar strings.
