[quote name='silddx' post='1245002' date='May 25 2011, 10:36 PM']Girl Gone Bad by Van Halen was called Ripley when Eddie wrote it, because, of course, he wrote it while playing a Ripley.[/quote]
"top Jimmy" also on the 1984 album IIRC features the Ripley guitar with the harmonic notes panned over stereo.

Yes' "I've seen all good people" sounds like Chris Squire's Rick has the Rick-O-Sound outputs panned separately- or is it a guitar doubling his bassline?
