The Fool (guitar)[edit]
- ... that The Fool's The Fool guitar helped Eric Clapton achieve his signature "woman tone"?
- Reviewed: I'll find one to review today or tomorrow.

- I found an image of a replica on Commons, File:Foolpic.jpg, but don't easily know how to add this to the template. Drmies (talk) 20:28, 2 January 2012 (UTC)
- Image added, but I'd try and see if it is a copyvio. My spidey senses are tingling. Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:28, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
- It was. Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:31, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
- Wow, thanks! I saw that article (well, I linked it, didn't I?) but didn't think to compare and to doubt the contributor. Drmies (talk) 20:26, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
- I tend to doubt anything at web resolution, or without EXIF data. Of course, dealing with Indonesian artists I usually get really blatant stuff (I once tagged a map that still had "Copyright [name of forum]" on it. No biggie, but Commons certainly has a goodly bit of copyvio so it's best to be careful. Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:40, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

The date of creation, length, hook, and content all seem to be fine. I can't access the article for the hook fact, but I am willing to assume good faith. Mark Arsten (talk) 21:35, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah, sorry--VG articles are not available online, but the other references probably verify every bit of information in the hook as well. Here's the guitar and the collective, and "woman tone" is here. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 22:02, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks, looks good to me. Mark Arsten (talk) 23:50, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
- As a side note, it appears Drmies needs a QPQ. Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:57, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
- Drmies has reviewed Uggie. Tick based on previous review. Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:50, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
