Speaking to XFM, Carl Barat explained that his new record was written on a guitar that Pete Doherty bought for him.

Speaking to Danielle Perry about his new solo project, Carl Barat & The Jackals Barrat revealed that he is using a guitar that Pete Doherty bought for him.

"I've got a new guitar that I've only been using with The Jackals, Pete bought me it when we did the first reunion in 2010…we did a press conference at The Boogaloo in North London but there's a shop called Wild Guitars up there and we said we'd buy each other a guitar."

"He bought me that, and then he chose one that wasn't more expensive. He bought an old Spanish guitar that looked pretty but was a bit knackered. I think he regretted that choice down the line."

On the rumours about Jack White producing the new record, Barat said "no one's asked him yet, but for the record it could be mind-blowing or a catastrophe."

The album is expected to be released early next year.
