 It’s like you put it up on the altar and say, ‘Here, everyone take a slice"
Josh Homme, June 2007[33]
.In an interview about guitars in 2008, Homme claimed to own an amount of guitars close to 35, adding that only 3 of them were "really good". He also declared that he purposely did not have a Fender Stratocaster or a Gibson Les Paul, but that he's always in search of intriguing, unique guitars, which are not always generally accepted as "quality" guitars, but are nevertheless great to use.^ Comprising Dave Grohl, Josh Homme and John Paul Jones, the rock trio may be the most buzzed-about band of the year, but they’re not the only recent supergroup to grab our attention.
