Slash recently chatted with former Sex Pistols guitarist Steve Jones on an episode of his Jonesy’s Jukebox radio show. Asked by Jones if he ever buys “any Fenders or anything,” Slash replied:
“I have a bunch of cool Teles and some cool Strats. All things considered, I’m a Les Paul guy but I love good-sounding guitars. And as far as I’m concerned, you know, and Gibson probably wouldn’t want me to say it, but the Strat is hands-down probably one of the best, most versatile guitars there is.”
