Great to see the Merle I have one in my collection and I am still exploring its capabilities.

[@donnamylife1981]

Wow I don’t want to go to work tomorrow I want to stay home and play my guitar 🎸

[@dickstryker]

This Fender instructional series is bar none some of the highest quality content on the web right now.

[@matthewdavidlandberg91588]

I discovered Buck Owens through Dwight Yoakam. And Eugene is probably my maternal grandpa's cousin! And Don Rich was from Washington State where my dad was from there.

[@jeffclark7888]

[@DelmarToad]

Awesome demo of Bakersfield playing, but the video seems like low frame rate like 15fps very jittery?

[@vincesarmento4854]

I would have loved to be the one coming up with the questions!! Honestly!!

[@rogerlawson4516]

Merle played bass early on for Buck. Buck asked Merle to help come up with a name his band, Merle said there could only be one, The Buckaroo's.

[@rogerlawson4516]

@@austinhawkins1443 Yes there is a song Buckaroo. The name was given by Merle Haggard. Before the song.

[@Hugh_Manitee]

CCR. "Lookin Out My Backdoor" 🎶"Dinosaur victrola....listenin to Buck Owen's. Doo doo doo lookin out my backdoor"🎶😎👍

[@jeffclark7888]

Yep!

[@xxguitarsamxx]

A few factual errors in this video: firstly, “Homer Simpson”...???...I’m pretty sure it was Homer Joy who wrote Streets Of Bakersfield. Secondly, “Buck used a Thinline Telecaster”???...I don’t recall ever seeing him using one. He used solid body Telecasters for most of his career. Nice picking guys, but you need to get your facts right.

[@rogerlawson4516]

Pre 1964 he used a Thinline Tele some. I have seen pics of him and a blonde (I think)Thinline, to many years ago. I'm getting old. LOL

[@erstwhilerambler]

“Simpson” was a simple, in-the-moment mistake, not a “factual error.”

[@xxguitarsamxx]

Fender didn’t make Thinline Teles until 1968.

[@jeffclark7888]

You boys straighten up!

[@Baci302]

Don Rich (RIP)

[@jerryp514]

As a grandson of dust bowl Okies who grew up in Oildale and Bakersfield, you can hook up an IV and run that Tele straight into my veins.

[@jeffclark7888]

Shazam.

[@dannyfisher6681]

Thank You and well done boys!

[@user79592]

I discovered Chris ledue(not spelled correctly) through Garth Brooks.

[@kale5294]

Merle Haggard came up with “Buckaroos” during the 3 week stint he did as Buck’s bass player.

[@Hugh_Manitee]

I never knew that! Cool 😎👍

[@jeffclark7888]

Correct. Two months in 1962.

[@jemrock1441]

I love it. Fender telecaster. 🙂 💫

[@DeHuwite]

Total badassity.

[@bigetcb9994]

Great video buck from my home town

[@ricardorodriguez5549]

Very cool stuff, fellows. Dig the vibe, especially the love for Merle, a truly great triple threat.

[@jimmymurphy7789]

FANTASTIC ! TY.

Awesome job guys! Really good program.

[@EdgarCPrice]

Question about how much is a 1972 Fender Telecaster Custom worth these days? I have one description ( A Walnut Finish With A Black Pick Guard, The Black And Silver Volume and Tone knobs. IT has A Maple Neck With A Chrome Truss Rod). It was given to me in the spring of 1973. Reason is that the people at the music store and very reliable people told me that it was a 1972 model. I was just wondering how much it cost in today's market? Thank You. From Goldsboro,N.C.

Hello from florida

[@williammanning8529]

TOMMY WAS A REALLY GREAT FREIND OF MINE

[@Julius_Seizure]

What does Fender call the color of that Tele?

[@Docsjeff]

Haggard came up w/Buckeroo

[@nathanprofitt3224]

Three Dog Night.

[@Docsjeff]

That “58 prob cost more than my Pickup.

[@samsonkirkpatrick6996]

His tone is about as far as you could get from Don Rich

[@jeffclark7888]

You think so?

[@stevewoods2408]

Nothibg about what pedsls used to make the Bakersfield sound?

[@joeshoe6184]

I'm not sure what these guys are using, but I'd bet Buck, Don, Merle etc were plugging straight into an amp.

[@419thmilitia]

That was just great yall

[@jeffclark7888]

On this date in 1974 the outstanding Don Rich died.

[@Docsjeff]

So it’s tuned to (D) instead of (E)or an octave below std tuning?

[@allenbyus3971]

Who built the first fender

[@keithbrinkman7983]

Wish i knew that

[@frankcline66]

Needed to turn down the volume on the acoustic, rhythm is to fill not over run the lead.

[@jeffclark7888]

I was wondering about that.

[@davegibbs6423]

Buckaroo written by Bob Morris

[@natebanchiere3843]

Curious as to what pedals are being used

[@weatherreport09]

A compressor, it's basically the only effect used in Bakersfield type country. Also the reverb on the amplifier, though not too much of it.

Nice playing but you should fact check before putting something like this out.

[@fraterfraxinus6293]

I really wanted to like this video, but it just doesn't do anything well. I'm glad you're having fun. Please post some serious stuff.

[@JamesCurtisOKC]

This is cool and all but Fender Play will only teach you to play what the guy with the acoustic guitar is playing.
