My dimming eyes were trying to count the tuning pegs on the top neck and I couldn't tell if it was 6 or 8. Reminds me of a YouTube video of Stevie Ray Vaughan coming on stage with a double guitar to play with Carlos Santana.<br /><br />And that reminds me of Fender Stratocasters, which most country musicians won't touch with a ten-foot pole. The man who designed it for Fender died a few years back and an article about him at the time noted that he moonlighted as a country and western guitar player. He found the Telecaster to be uncomfortable as heck to play for a few hours at a time, so, in his day job, he designed the Stratocaster. It was popular on Lawrence Welk and then Jimi Hendrix made it popular in rock music, but country musicians shun it for some reason.<br /><br />Anyway, forgive my rambling. I love the older country music - thanks for the video!Arthur Mervynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17504229544539032232noreply@blogger.com
