I was just thinking that... Looks like a Gibson, but the pic isn't quite clear enough to be sure... Either way, I think I want it

I think its You're Everywhere.
Also wheat kings on canada day.
I think paul used to play acoustic on 38 and Last american exit.
Also, Robbie plays acoustic on ABAC because he really likes to play it with one hand, with his left arm at his side.

maybe he's thinking "Im getting too old for this shit!". :lol:
Actually Paul played both electric and acoustic during Scared at the London show. He started playing acoustic, broke a string then switched to electric.
I always get a little giddy whenever he pulls out the black accoustic... you know either "Scared" or "Wheat Kings" is on the way.
I still never seen this broken string by Paul! But i know it did sound a bit different at first, and Gord D gave paul a few looks.........

I don't have anything to add about guitars either, but let's all spend a moment banging our hands together for Mr. Paul Langlois, ladies and gentlemen.

*Standing and applauding*
I completely agree. I love him too! The band wouldn't be the same without him.
If you ever listen to the 1989 boot where the Hip played a Christmas gig for CFNY in Toronto, after they finish Last American Exit, Paul either breaks a string or something and you can hear him say, "Whoa" (or something like that) in the mic, then Robby adds, "See, man, I told you the band just isn't the same without him". Only time I ever hear Robby's voice in a show. But yes, Paul is the man, and the band wouldn't be the same without him.
so, we have determined he plays it on Scared, Wheat Kings and 38 years old? is there any more?
