Was it a 12-string guitar that Rick used to get that dirty, twangy sound on Stevie Nicks' "No Questions Asked" from their 1988 "Greatest Hits" album? I wonder because the sound reminded me so much of the dirty reverb that Brian Jones got from his 12-string Vox teardrop at Chicago's Chess Studio in 1964, when The Rolling Stones recorded "It's All Over Now" (my favorite track on their "12x5" album that Rick lists here as one of his 5 favorites of all time).
Great interview! Two super nice fellers... Rick is legend.

I wish you would have asked him if he uses alternate or open tunings, and if so which ones.
Rick tunes to Open E. Nice.
