Q: What Type of Guitars Does Robert Smith Have in His Collection?



So I was looking for information on the black Telecaster that I saw Robert Smith play during a concert in 1987, and found the answer to this much broader question. Of course I had to share it:


Q: What Type of Guitars Does Robert Smith Have in His Collection?

A: I don't have a complete list of all the guitars he's ever used or owned. He has over 50 of them, possibly more. It's a pretty safe bet that he has at least one of all the major models. Here's a short list of some specific models though: Gretsch Silver Falcon 6136SL, Gibson Chet Atkins semi-acoustic, '60s Fender Jazzmaster, Fender Telecaster, '60s Fender Bass VI, '60s Mosrite Ventures, '60s Coral Sitar, Takamine EN28C acoustic, Takamine 12-string acoustic, Aria Sandpiper acoustic, Ovation L756 12-string acoustic, Gretsch Black Falcon, Gretsch Red Tennessee Rose, Guild 12-string acoustic, Gibson Reverse Firebird, and the list goes on. Even though Robert has a large collection of guitars there's really only a handful of them that he uses on a regular basis. Some of the ones you'll see most often are the Jazzmaster, Telecaster, Falcon and Fender 6-string bass.
