Co-written by Gilmour, Polly Samson and Nick Laird-Clowes, Poles Apart was revealed by Samson to be about founding members Syd in the first verse and Roger in the second. Tuned to DADGAD, Gilmour played this guitar throughout The Division Bell Tour for performances of Poles Apart, the third track on The Division Bell. Illsley had used the J-200 on stage for performances of So Far Away on Dire Straits’ On Every Street Tour from August 1991 to October 1992 in support of their sixth and final album On Every Street. When a second model was required for The 1994 Division Bell Tour, John Illsley kindly offered to sell his guitar, number 42 of 90, to Gilmour. And they let me have it.Īlong with his trusty Martins, Gilmour’s first J-200, number 9 of 90, was used extensively during recording sessions for Pink Floyd’s 1994 album The Division Bell. I contacted Gibson and asked if they had any left, …they were looking in their storeroom and they found one that had somehow never reached its destination. In an interview with Guitar World magazine in May 2006, Gilmour recalled: I was in AIR Studios and that guitar was lying around. Gilmour afterwards contacted Gibson and acquired his first J-200 Celebrity in November 1987 (lot 67). Originally part of the collection of Dire Straits bassist and founding member John Illsley, David Gilmour first picked up and played this guitar while guest recording in a neighboring studio to Dire Straits at London’s AIR Studios in September 1986, probably for Bryan Ferry’s seventh solo album Bête Noire.
