Hey guys
was watching a My Chemical Romance DVD and during the song Teenagers, Ray Toro uses a guitar that looks alot like a jazzmaster. I know its not a fender and have tried research via the internet but nothings come up.
Any help?

I read the word 'harmony' on that vintage silvertone website and for some reason thought that it fitted with the shape of the word on the headstock of ray's guitar. Total fluke, really ;)
I will answer your question with another question. Why on earth were you watching an MCR DVD?

everyone gives them shit haha but they they do have some pretty damn good songs, and they layer and hamonise their guitars really well.

Ray Toro is very under rated as a guitarist from what I've heard.

Teenagers certainly ain't their finest example though... lyrically atleast.

I know this is probably a rude statement to make.. but they're fucking shit. And I usually respect other peoples musical opinions and don't comment.. but in my current grouchy arvo mood, I can't resist posting in this thread any longer. They are fucking shit. I don't care if they're talented, the end product is trash.
mainly due to their whiney vocals, bleak and cliche'd lyrics, and horrible fashion sense. ;)

Why?! Why would you subject yourself to MCR.
I'm now going to leave this thread and my office to get something stronger than an ice break do erase the thought from my memory.
