Al Di Meola's guitar

[yag]

Does anybody know what Meola uses as electroguitars, i couldn't find it?

I've seen pics of him playing Les Pauls - probably not the only model he uses, though.

Depending on the point in his career, I've seen pictures of DiMeola playing a 335 block-neck, a 175, an LP and even a strat. I do think he tends to favor the LP, though.

When I've seen him live he uses a Roland VG-88 played via his acoustic guitar (usually an Ovation) to emulate an electric guitar.

In the 70's he used a '59 Les Paul with custom Al DiMeola model pickups.

According to recent photos of him, he's using a Paul Reed Smith electric solid body these days or the Les Paul as well.

Either way he's awesome!

I've missed his concert in Turkey this year , but last year he was using a solid body guitar and not a les paul...
Well, initially I asked about the guitar he is using nowadays after his return to electro with flesh on flesh and consequence of chaos...

On the cover of CoC he is holding a PRS, when you go to his site the picture shows him holding a doubleneck PRS, so those are at least in his current arsenal.
