The credits on the back of The Bourne Identity soundtrack CD identify John Powell as one of three musicians who play the "F.O. Guitar".
That's all very well and good, but does anyone have ANY idea what sort of guitar that actually is, or what "F.O." stands for?

So it does...Powell, Joel Richard and George Doering.
I mean what types of guitar are there...accoustic, bass and electric...
F.O...wtf?!
If you check the case for Supremacy it just as Powell and Doering down under guitars. Odd that. -

Tell me about it.
I have the horrible feeling it's a sneer towards the not-so-casual fan who actually bothers with the unforgiveable penultimate anorakness of actually reading CD back cover credits...
Something like "Fuck Off guitar"...
And I was only trying to bring my database up to speed!
My database of..erm...soundtracks.
Which I maintain.
For no other reason than my own pleasure.
And read CD back cover credits for.
Yah.

Well if you happen to find out what it is eventually, let me know and I'll add it to the FAQ on the site. -

I have been trying to find this out but it´s impossible ; I didn´t know there are so many kind of guitars. It is becoming a personal issue. Damn Martijn, now I will be wondering what the hell is a F.O. Guitar until somebody tells us.
PD The Fuck Off Guitar would be nice though.Anything with an orchestra or with a choir....at some point will reach you -

Choose one:
1) Money
2) Reign of the World
3) Your girl
Honestly? I have no idea what you mean. I want nothing from you. I just found the timing of your response to Martijn massively entertaining. And yes, I am aware of what you really answered to. I´m sorry if you thought I was laughing at or about you. I absolutely wasn´t.
