He had a pair of Jazzmasters in Orange Juice, plus a Fender XII, and later on had Musicmaster and Duo-Sonic. There's some great clips of him in the "Dada With Juice" video tearing into his blue Jazzmaster, "Bridge" especially.
Love the way he used to play, his attitude was so right. Great taste in guitars too. Might have to have an OJ night now...
Didn't know that Edwyn Collins was an offset player, but I agree with all you said about him above.
Otherwise, Johnny Marr was always one of my favourite guitarists/songwriters and then he created that wonderful swiss-army knife of a guitar.
Finally, Nils Lofgren doesn't get much respect (hard to, when you're buried in the E-Street Wall of Sound) but he does do some very tasty things with a JM that he views as being a good tool for cutting through the mix.
