[@cavdragoon]

That RS guitar works Tele sounds unreal. Im surprised JD decided to part with it. It was for sale not that long ago for about $4000.

[@tonedr]

really I didn't know that!

[@cavdragoon]

@@tonedr One year later and the guitar is for sale again on reverb for $5200.

[@artheriford]

I hear Luther Perkins, Don Rich, Jerry Reed, and Danny Gatton in JD's playing. You're no slouch either, Dale. Good stuff.

[@tonedr]

mk phelps thanks for sharing some of your time with us...hope all is good your way!

[@pedaphelps]

dale who was the guy doing the great pickin?

[@tonedr]

mk phelps JD Simo - he's a Nashville picker who's just amazing and gaining a bigger audience of fans. He's IMO among the finest younger pickers and i'm honored and thankful to call him friend and have him join us on this project - thanks for asking!

[@pedaphelps]

is he on anymore videos?

[@tonedr]

mk phelps he plays on all 4 vids for this LLB project and there are a lot of other great vids here on YT that you might consider checking out.

[@АпрельскийТезис]

Bravo from Russia!

[@tonedr]

Thanks so much for checking this out..greatly appreciated!

[@SealedOrPorted]

Would be interested to learn if JD pulled from his experience with the Don Kelley Band or if another version of Cash classics influenced his play. It’s obvious you all enjoyed having him play this set, I know I very much enjoyed it. I wish old Nashville and Bakersfield would merge and create a Haggard/Yoakum/Cash genre with some bluegrass peppered in.

[@tonedr]

Thanks so much for checking this out..greatly appreciated!

[@melenn1747]

Amazing telecaster 😱

[@tonedr]

Thanks so much for checking this out..greatly appreciated!

[@jeremymoose1613]

[@tonedr]

We are from Central KY, thanks so much for listening!

[@70snuttodd95]

Lexington?

[@timothypadilla8910]

These videos get better each time I thought the Hendrix and Tom Petty covers were good but these Cash songs are amazing. What's the story on JD's Tele don't think I have ever seen him playing it before?

[@tonedr]

Timothy Padilla thanks Timothy for the very kind words & also for sharing your love of music with us! JD is playing an RS Guitarworks Tele - he did the painting job himself:)

[@MCLBC]

JD's Tele smoked two packs of cigarettes after this song...

[@tonedr]

haha...great post!

[@tombrunelle2974]

That is seriously funny!

[@jeremymoose1613]

that lead guitar player sounds really good very good the next bob wootton.

[@tonedr]

thanks...he's a pretty amazing guitarist and gaining a lot of fans! thanks so much for checking this out, dale.

[@markopolo3435]

Jeremy moose great band formula, and the singer has wonderful strong voice.

[@jhmusicchannel3608]

I've gotta know the signal chain for the lead guitar player. Just perfect tone.

[@tonedr]

Shut Up and Play! Demos easy! RS Guitarworks tele - JD's fingers - curly chord - Fender Blackface Princeton 1x12. IMO fingers are most important in chain. thanks for listening - greatly appreciated, dale

[@tonedr]

Shut Up and Play! Demos also want to say i've been stealing this week from some of your vids and you are just a GREAT player - i wish we were close enough to share live music - keep up the great playing, fan, dale.

[@tonedr]

tonedr also forgot JD turns every knob to 10. Too bad they don't got to 11:)

[@jhmusicchannel3608]

tonedr Couldn't agree more. Fingers are definitely 75% of any tone.

[@jhmusicchannel3608]

tonedr Forgot to mention. I did my PhD coursework in music theory at UK. I played in a 90s band w/ Mike Huff. I come back into town at least once a year. I'd love to sit in with you guys if you ever bring Mike back. He kills some Black Crowes. Thanks, Jason Hobert

[@EclecticHillbilly]

Don't know if it's on your list or not but Get Rhythm would be a good one.

[@tonedr]

Sincere thanks for checking this out!

[@markopolo3435]

Who's the vocalist, great voice. I've noticed his not your regular.

[@tonedr]

that's Kevin - thanks for the kind words and i agree he has a terrific voice - he also did the Haggard set - thanks for listening!

[@terrycrotts2522]

My goodness that tele is smoking hot.

[@tonedr]

agree...what a magnificent player JD is!

[@stratmagic6893]

great track!! I noticed JD is using a white curly guitar cord that I have seen a lot of guys using lately can you PLS tell me who makes it-thank you

[@tonedr]

vibrato6 oh man i'm very sorry but i didn't ask him and do not know! it is cool and if i can find out i'll post back - sincere thanks for checking this out - love your avatar!

[@stratmagic6893]

tonedr I googled white curly cable and I think it might be a Lava cable-my avatar is my 2000 gary moore signature Les Paul which I love mucho-thx

[@willbennett1813]

vibrato6 i've noticed the same, i can only guess but since JD uses some RS stuff and is based around that area and has a few videos with them, it would make sense, RS guitarworks have a cable exactly like this one store.rsguitarworks.net/rs-lava-retro-coil-cable-white/dp/310 again, only a guess but hope it helps

[@tarekmohamed1336]

thumbs up.

[@jocelynfilion8912]

Great job! What kind of pickups on the telecaster?

[@tonedr]

i'm pretty sure Lindy Fralin's.

[@michaelbentley4182]

I love my Strat but somehow you can't beat a Tele especially when played but a classy player - brilliant...

[@tonedr]

they both are such great guitars aren't they! Thanks so much for giving this a listen, dale.

[@michaelbentley4182]

My comment should have said played by a classy player! oops...

[@jeremymoose1613]

that guitar that guy is using is not a fender what is it looks different then a fender telecaster sounds really good.

[@tonedr]

It's built by RS Guitarworks here in KY!

[@jeremymoose1613]

are you guys still making videos of this or what.

[@tonedr]

done with this project...thanks for listening!
