One of Pat Smear's Guitars
(sold in Auction, Sept 2002)
Permission granted from the vendor
 

Pat Smear’s heavily modified white Hagstrom III. This guitar has been refinished and heavily modified using gold Gibson hardware. This was one of Pat’s most used guitars on several Foo Fighters tours, and graced the cover of BAM magazine in April of 1996.

This guitar was also played at the Tibetan Freedom Concert in San Francisco, and appears in the recent documentary film of this event.

"A serious rock and roll machine, Pat favored this instrument due in part to the fire breathing Dimarzio Super Distortion pickup hiding under the gold cover back in the bridge position. He sunk a pretty penny into modifying this Hagstrom, but it was easily justified by the amount of use it saw over the next few years".

It also saw use in the recording studio, most notably for the song “The Colour & the Shape”.
