Shredders in chiffon: Bilinda Butcher

Bilinda Butcher is perhaps best known for her work in My Bloody Valentine, the seminal post-rock group from the 90s. Providing vocals for the band, her guitar playing helped create the epic, effect-strewn sound that defined MBV.

Her weapon of choice tended to be a Fender Jaguar, but she also played Jazzmasters, and some internet research suggests that she used a modified Mustang... She also professes a love for Charvel Surfcasters, which I share. You can find out more about her gear here - vintage.guitargeek.com/rigreview/74/.

But really you should just sit back and listen to the helluva noise that she created. Amazing.
