does milner play the guitar?
it appears to me that he is, and playing some pretty intricate jazz improvisations.
any thoughts? looked at his bio, there's no mention of a musical background.
It looked to me that he prepared really well, in the opening shot of him he did a good job of mimicking the line that was being played. But...he just didn't look comfortable holding a guitar. I'm a bit curious to know what make of guitar he's playing, the headstock looks kind of garish.
"By God, I heard the crow call my name!" exclaimed Caw.
that's probably the most likely explanation.
it shows the attention to detail paid, even in the little things, in this fine masterwork film.
i tried to figure that out too. it looks like an epiphone sheraton, or epiphone emporor. might be a guild. i don't think it's a gibson.
shareIt's a D'angelico, one of the hallowed names in the guitar making industry. The particular model was a New Yorker, if I recall correctly, the top of their line. Guitar Player magazine did a piece on this very guitar in the early 90's. Apparently it has been kept under a bed for decades. The writer was a SSOS fan and a jazz enthusiast, and this particular guitar was his holy grail.
