With humbuckers, you can practically face an amp and if you are playing rhythm, not much feedback will come out except when you stop playing. With hollow-bodies and crappy surf guitars I've found that you can create interesting melodies over the rhythm. I would assume they did similar sort of stuff.


check this video:

it looks like there all using hollowbodies.

When Im trying to play a JMC song I use my one guitar, a 60's St. George shitty Japanese guitar with two bad single coils, I then put on the overdrive, contour it a bit and add a lot of reverb. It sounds pretty good....
