Pink Floyd | Wish You Were Here a pale shadow of whatWish You Were Here opens up with a distant chord progression from Gilmours 12 string acoustic guitar, processed to sound as though its emanating from a car stereo.

The second guitar is loud and blemish free; the first is just a ghost, a pale shadow of what it mustve sounded like when it was originally recorded. By
