Peter Saint-Andre: Instruments

I play three instruments:

• A beat up old jumbo Taylor six-string that I bought in New York City circa 1988 (model #815, serial #690), on which I play most of the songs I've written, my musical setting of Freedom's Plow, and various cover tunes such as songs by Bob Dylan.
• A Hirade classical guitar, on which I play my suites and variations for solo guitar.
• A Minotaur bass guitar created by Joe Veillette, on which I play my arrangements of Yes songs for solo bass as well as the bass lines on some of my original songs.

I use D'Addario strings: Phosphor Bronze light strings (EJ16) on the Taylor (which is in such a weakened state that it can't even handle my preferred medium light strings), Pro-Arte extra hard tension nylon strings (EJ44) on the Hirade, and medium-gauge nylon tapewound strings (ETB92) on the Minotaur.
