I see on the Live In Pomeii - Directors Cut, when Gilmour is laying down the track to Brain Damage, also on the Making of the Dark Side of the Moon dvd, he uses this black guitar. I've never seen one like it before, does anyone know what is the brand and model of that guitar?

It's a Bill Lewis Custom 24-fret guitar. It was also used to do the 3rd solo in 'Money'.

I don't understand when people say there is a 3rd solo in money. All I hear is 1 sax solo and 1 guitar solo.

theres the sax solo
then theres a 1st solo
then all the compression stops and gilmour does a petatonic riff then goes into the last solo
well the petatonic riff is known as solo2 wen its really the bridge
and solo 3 is the last solo

Yeah, I always marveled at how high he gets in that 3rd solo. It makes sense now that I know that it's on a 24 fret guitar.

When I was learning the money solo, I just thanked Jebus that my guitar had 24 frets, I can't bend from the 22nd.
