Before you create a Muse thread

[sarcasm]Finally. Now we will no longer have any more "What does that guy from Muse use on Hysteria?" threads.[/sarcasm]

Apparently my tags don't work. :(

haha for real though. That's an interesting wiki. Muse is always fun to listen to.
 
Big fan. First song I learned on bass was Hysteria.

Like his use of open strings quite a bit. The body of his tone, so thick, and the added effects make his sound fill the function of low end and damn near rhythm guitar playing. I like that there's very little aping of Bellamy's chords (the few that he plays).

And Bellamy is A God. He is not THE God. (bonus points to whoever spots the film reference).
