Tom Morello, now touring
with his latest venture, Street
Sweeper Social Club, challenges
conventional wisdom with
“Sendero Luminoso,” an ‘ 82
American Tele that, unlike most
of his other guitars, is completely
stock. “I just decided to stop
worrying so much about seeking
some magical guitar tone,” he
told us, “but instead [I decided
to] use what I had to write music
effectively and incorporate a
unique tone that I did have.”
