Guitars used by Mark this tour?

[quizzaciously]

Wow, a good catch. Great to see Mark using Peter Green out of phase Mod at last.

Look the at the pickup on the neck, it is set up the same way as the bridge pickup as you can see

that doesn't necessarily mean it's a different guitar

No, as per my post above, reissue 59 for WAM, original 58 (I saw the sticker!) on OUATITW, YLT and Speedway, and reissue 58 on the encores.

Show me a picture of the original 58 on this tour and I'll believe you!

I cannot believe he wouldn't use the original 58 for BIA if he has it with him. Doesn't make sense.

That's the original 59. Check the pictures from this tour and you'll see the flaming is exactly the same. The front pick up has been turned arse-about-face. A popular Les Paul mod.

He definitely uses the original 58 in the songs mentioned above. I also think it is the real 59 on WAM.

[Vincent Rapide]

Like I said, I'll believe it when I see a picture of him with it. Not seen one yet on this tour. If you know your Les Pauls, you'll know what I mean!

I don't have a pic right now but I just looked at this youtube video of SAN. At around min 4:45 you have a pretty good view on the LP and I would say it is indeed the real 58, but of course not 100% sure. What do you think?

Oooh, now you've got me thinking!

Those MK replicas are so well done it's difficult to tell. The real one has a scratch across the lower horn and, of course, that wanky repair job near the bridge.

Must admit it does look like it

We need to see the gold sticker!!!

After a lot of comparing various photos, I think you might be right!

Which means, then, that he also uses this for BIA, MFN, GH??

Anyway, if you really want to get geeky, here's link to Mark's 58

I used to think I knew a lot about MK’s guitars.....

I think for the encores it is one of the reissues as you said. It is quite hard to tell because of different colours of light  etc

The reversed pickup doesn't mean the sound is out of phase.
There might be at most a difference in the winding of the coils - so either you have the weaker or the stronger pair nearer to the bridge or the other way around and that might be the reason why the pickup is reversed (aside from cosmetical reasons).
But you don't get an OOP sound by turning the pickup.

I saw the gold sticker from a couple of feet away at the RAH.

Also saw the signature and metal selector cover during the encores on the reissue. Don't really care if people choose not to believe that but I don't have anything to gain by making this up.

Less sure about the WAM guitar being a reissue but it looked practically new.

I didn't spot that ! I only got a couple of blurred shots of WAM, which I didn't bother editing,but looking at them now It's the same guitar. An easy "tell" is also the straps- he has a different strap on each guitar which don't get switched during the set.   

Plenty of shots of the other les Pauls Here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/dtvaviationimages/albums/72157708765082687
