That link failed to work for me.
Usually anything pointed to a Facebook page is unlikely available to most.

What can I say? Archtops rule! Smile I noticed that he ended with that most famous of chords, an Em9 nat 7 voiced 0 10 9 8 7 X. That is one great voicing.

The topic got me looking at Vic Flicks’s guitar discussions about the Bond theme. I (for some reason) always thought it was a strat. Anyway, this makes more sense. I’m still wondering about why he had a rail humbucker in the strat when he sold it to the Pawn shop. I also came across this interview with Vic Flick that filled in some of the questions regarding his choice of guitars. Hopefully this shows up better.

Apparently played on a Clifford Essex Paragon with a DeArmond floating pickup, plugged into an AC-15. Linked is a YouTube video of him playing the original Bond Theme.

Thanks for sharing those direct links!

I've been just happen to be working on my "spy surf medley" of which the backing rhythm is the James Bond theme.
I mix in licks from Mission Impossible, Good the Bad and Ugly. Goldfinger, Hawaii 5-0, Batman, and a few others. It's fun!
