It's a copy though, just get a real telecaster

I love that bit with Bill Kirchen in Hot Rod Lincoln when he gets to the part where he is to play some Redd Volkaert licks and he sort of jumbles it up and sorry Red...maybe next time. Such a compliment to the skills Redd. Nice vid....I liked hearing about the love that went into those guitars. Thanks for such a great vid.

dang!

Looks like Grandpa's axe..three new handles and one new head..

I have this same guitar, but bought from Norma Harris. Same mechanism, 1966

How did that Stoner forget "The Ox" John Entwistle!!" That guy is like a few guys i remember in High School Oddball,,Lofer+Just out of touch of reality!! 😮

Redd is just amazing! Not only a great player but great sense of humor! I literally laughed out loud about the remote control comment!

Red could make a Walmart special sound great…. Just saying

Check out western swing- it's a blast!

And a set of Bose 901's! Love um or hate um, I love them!

Wow, I graduated from Roxbuy HS, Succasunna 1973, right near Dover. Playing my lap steel right now, I'll be jamming on my Carter 12 string pedal steel later!

To big and goofy looking

Man G and B benders have come along way. Thanks to Joe Glaser he made a system that is hardly noticeable. No need to butcher and rought out the back of the guitar. There are some great KZbin Videos showing Joe installing the unit. One video is on the Ask Zac channel. You all should watch it its very interesting

Been a fan of Tony's for a long time. Just a great solid drummer and hell of a nice guy. Thanks for this Gary!

Victor is a treasure as are the Wildmans! Young folk that care abt the Music they're playing!❤

Listening to this is like a big ol' hug from my grandmother, y'all would have gotten along fantastically 👍 And bless the younger folk embracing this music❤

A big is a wonderful thing

I went to school with chris, and I was a "big fish" in my high school as a bass player, but after seeing him play, I was saying to myself: "Well, I am pretty good with computers"! He's a badass! Good to see him thriving!

No, David Hood used a Jazz for everything.

No, David Hood played a Jazz on everything. He could have used a P, but the Jazz was the first thing he saw after he decided to get a bass. David was never much of a gear guy. On the Staple Singers tune, I think he played his first bass which was a stack knob jazz. That one was later stolen.

That was lovely, thanks 😊

awesome video, i am a die heart for Clarence white's playing on the "sweetheart of rodeo". My favorite record of all time. good to see the héritage is still alive

11:30 Jim is great and I hate to disagree with him here, but there is a DRAMATIC difference between the middle and neck positions. 2 very different sounds. I don't think I've ever heard anyone say that before.

Just stumbled across Tony in a Little Feat video. The guy has some serious chops!

The bottoms of tacked on, .single headed toms ..were pigskin….Top,calf….Plastic heads came out in 1958,I believe….

To much effects to hear how it actually sounds

I got to attend a clinic he did at the Kansas City folk alliance some years back. It was magical. I knew blues pretty well at the time but struggled trying to solo in country. I had taken my MIM 72 reissue thinline tele with me and after the clinic some old boy from Texas that also attended the clinic came up and said he really liked my guitar. We got to talking about picking and I played him some Albert King style licks and some Kansas City jazzy blues licks and he was impressed. I told him blues comes natural to me but I don't know how to get my solos to sound country. He said hell you know all the minor pentatonic positions just play the major pentatonic and I didn't know what he was on about. He showed me how to slide down and make my pinky the root in position one. Instantly it clicked and I started playing that country twang I had been searching for years to try and get. Its been some years now and I'm still trying to learn more chicken pickin its become an addiction. If it wasn't for that clinic watching this man and getting to talk with that random stranger from Texas, I would have never even started.

Man, that tune at the end was pretty. Anybody know what that’s called?

All that technology going to waste 😔

tell me more about this humbucking pickup from Lenny who?

I've been a lifelong bass player but started on guitar when I was 12. I've been playing guitar seriously for the past decade or so and I'm confused as to play a Telecaster or a Strat in a gig I was offered recently as a rhythm guitarist. I'm not a guitarist in the caliber of Redd, but I wonder which he'd suggest. The Tele I have is sunburst with a black pick guard. It's like an old one with the 3 brass saddles. Very nice. My USA Strat is black and newer with a tilt neck. I may wind up using the Tele because I want to use the cool Fender gig bag it came with as a case.

Wish I could afford a Natchocaster!

Beautiful sounding instrument! That was a surprise to see Lucas on here. I play an Ozark banjo. It was built by Lucas and traded to his father Scott, as part of a payment for a pickup truck. Lol I've been a fan of Lucas since his teenage years. My mother almost bought the property next to his dads music store years ago (actually I recon that would have been a year or 3 before Scott bought the store). You talked about him marrying Eden who plays fiddle, but his mother plays fiddle also. Shes the fiddle instructor at their music store. Her classes are on the front porch on nice weather days.

does victor realise eli is sitting on where he lays his head at night?!? ;)

Absolutely gorgeous sounding kits❤❤❤

Thank you, Rubens, for mentioning Kenny Rankin (one of my early influences - what a voice!) and the incomparable Chet Atkins.

Jim said, "I don't mess around with the tiers." Could be a good song: "I Don't Mess Around with the Tears." Great interview with a great musician and a great human being.

Flat wounds on this? Sounds great.

Great piece about Bill Rickard. Thank you.

Where’s the bass playing? I just hear talking and jumped forward, more talking

What's the date on the neck. Maybe you don't know how to check it.

i own a 80s model b bender telecaster that i got from my uncle Billy Ray Lathum, he played the banjo with Clarence and Roland white, the b bender installed and signed by Gene Parsons, I'll never part with it

I think his pick up switch is reversed.

Love the sound of Ross' lap steel. Owned by Jerry - Wo! 🔥✌

Absolutely legendary playing here! Love it! 🎉

I enjoyed this video so much I came back to watch again. Thanks.

Aging is such a bad name for this!

Owsley was an Alembic co-founder, but I believe Rick Turner and Ron Wickersham were the real engine behind the basses and active electronics.

Tonewood argument and riff gatekeeping in the same breath. My man is a walking Reddit post! 😉 But for real, great info and amazing playing

Roger McGuinn defined the sound of the 12 string Ric in the Byrds in 1965. I was smitten then and still listening nearly 60 years later. Going to see Roger in concert this coming Tuesday, can hardly contain myself.
