imagine throwing a guitar neck away then you find out that Tom Morello himself retrieved it from the bin and adapted to his guitar.

[@TheScaredofsilence]

Tom always seems happy to give interviews and share information about his gear. He's probably been asked the same questions a thousand times, literally. But he always seems enthusiastic and humble. There are a lot pros not nearly as popular or successful who just have their techs do these interviews. Thanks Tom!

3:20 dude completely stops moving and takes it all in

[@leeskunk4510]

Lmao I never notice that

THIS TAKES ME BACK TO THE TOM MORELLO GUITAR BATTLE ON GUITAR HERO 3

[@d.m.walker2552]

Hahaa samee, those were the days

[@ismolaitela9793]

Home the armless!

[@EasyHeat]

High Five!

[@ReddFourBirds]

Is it just me or is he literally playing what he recorded for GH3?

[@sargeantsucks]

yep the guitar battle

[@08grizzo122o]

I've actually made an exact lego replica of the arm the homeless guitar with the toggle switch and everything

[@p1ysaucedo]

Awesome interview!

[@sumeetj3628]

Tom is a genius

[@pooppoopoo6173]

Fanboy

[@user-el5mg4it9t]

He's not.

[@sumeetj3628]

@C I didn't mean from his political opinions i don't care about them. It's his guitar skills

[@sumeetj3628]

@C Oh if he is trolling other artists randomly that's not appreciated

[@ukedude8565]

Underrated Musician.

[@ViniloEnfermos]

That was a Masterclass!

[@Cheyne_TetraMFG]

So, he says his EMGs are single-coils disguised as humbuckers, does he just disconnect half the pickup to do this? Does anyone know?

[@tempo1889]

More than likely it's probably just a single coil in a humbucker type casing.

[@luisaucedo]

He's talking about the EMG H type pickup, it's just a single coil active pickup in a humbucker casing www.emgpickups.com/h.html

[@Cheyne_TetraMFG]

@@luisaucedo Thank you Luis! I'm not super familiar with EMG pickups generally so I didn't know what to search, really appreciate it!

[@BenFairbank]

Ah remember the days when if you wanted to get political you’d put together a band? Now you can just troll KZbin comments and twitter🤮

[@fredericthom8113]

it s différence between be young with a lot of hope and power and become old and see it was impossible ... and when you realize it was impossible, you just stop to fight ... but you are young , you can t catch it yet !

[@masterklaw4527]

Just because you said that, I'm going to write and record a bunch of protest songs.

[@MetalHeadHippie]

Very Nice.. Great Interview.

[@PlumbingArkansas]

If you hold your hand over his lower body and guitar when he’s using the slide to make noises, this video is even better lmao.

[@jimrocklaw]

Incredible. The video should be in the Smithsonian.

[@CMQ01]

damn....lots of hate here. I understand his hypocrisy of politics but he was the man in the 90's as far as riffage and originality. May not be that original now but in the mid 90's, he raised the bar for guitar experimental sounds. Looking forward to the full rundown

[@rectangularcuboid]

The full rundown was posted here about a year ago - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jaG8ZXx_rpuVb5o

[@MK-oz2lf]

He doesn't have hypocritical politics it's just you've simply exposed that you're socioeconomically ill informed.

[@p1ysaucedo]

@@MK-oz2lf that and they've been heavily indoctrinated to hate and fear anything farther left of center it seems like.

Probably cause it was gay

[@Stefanosman1978]

So hi can’t stop 🥲touching is nose🤦🏻great guitar player anyway

[@MichaelEdelman1954]

Putting a sticker on a guitar obviously does much more than, say, donating a significant amount of money.

[@whiskerbiscuit6674]

You don't know how much or how little he's ever donated. What have you done with your life edgemiester. But because know you're a crotchey old man who'll die alone I'll do some work for you www.imdb.com/news/ni61880939

[@p1ysaucedo]

They've donated, done fundraisers and free concerts for charity. There's videos and articles on this. Its one of the first things I see them associated with, how are you so dense.

[@decontrolx8783]

Old comment but hilarious ppl thinking Rage doesn’t put their money were their mouth is 😂

[@jimboslice9472]

How ignurt

[@coffinperson]

The idiocy and hypocrisy of socialism, communism and liberalism lived out.

[@preciat816]

Liberalism and socialism are opposites buffoon

No wonder this guitar is a hunk of dung, look at that hammer and sickle ruining everything in a 10 mile radius
