Here is my ole A#1 Tele..... it has sure been through some changes in its life. It's sure to go through some more too, I'd imagine. It started life as a 1956 Telecaster, pencil mark AX-1-56. it was refinished in a horrible yellow color in the late 60's or so...... it was used by Jim Weader on some cuts, while it lived in a studio in Maine for a while. Oddly enough, even though we were both in Maine..... I met this guitar out in Colorado and just couldn't put it down. So she came to be the first guitar I ever bought, that I couldn't afford.... and thus began a habit of doing foolish, irresponsible things, to get my hands on guitars that spoke to me. Since having the guitar in my hands, well...... it's been refinished about 5 times. Refretted about the same. My buddy Kevin Skryla built the Parsons/White style bender and put it on there..... I kept widening out the neck pickup cavity to put weirder and weirder things in there...... She's mine.... my ride or die..... and she's travelled a long LONG way with me..... except for that little while where I'd sold her to my buddy Aaron Currie...... but hey.... she came back to me...... again...... https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64ce8c777ce3de20eaac6675/e1bfbcee-9c57-40e6-971d-ae4fcbbdafb6/image3.jpeg Guitar Nerds click here... The Bursts!!! The Tele is actually and Esquire, but I added a neck pickup because......... I just like having one. this one came from the factory in 1963 and is all original besides the neck pickup and pickguard.... but those are period correct vintage parts too!! That Lester.... she's a Wildwood Spec featherweight from way back.... well... like 2000 something..... the pickups in her are old Patent Stickers from the 60's and if every you wanted a Les Paul to do Les Paul sounding stuff..... this is about as close as you can get without spending $300,000. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64ce8c777ce3de20eaac6675/47993a75-c9f8-4b7a-a2ad-60e44a49c239/image2.jpeg Guitar Nerds click here... Everyone needs a good fancy Martin guitar..... so their Lynx Cat can sleep under it...... This D45 I bought drunk, back when I got drunk enough to buy guitars I couldn't afford. Though the circumstances of its acquisition were not ideal, it is a beautiful piece of pure American singer songwriter hardware..... and I'll eventually pay off that credit card...... https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64ce8c777ce3de20eaac6675/02563c45-0d1f-4b5a-8955-20bffded30bb/image1.jpeg Guitar Nerds click here... And ole D-18..... something everyone needs. This guitar came to me from my good buddy, and singin' sumbitch, Colton Kise..... why he ever sold it I'll never understand, but I'm glad it lives on my porch now. This is the most amazing sounding acoustic guitar I've ever had the pleasure to play. It should be nothing that special........ it's just a 1999 D18v..... but it's been PLAYED into a war horse of a flattop.... and.... you should really come sit on the porch and play it yourself.... YOU'LL SEE WHAT I MEAN!!!! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64ce8c777ce3de20eaac6675/4c4ec653-e3b7-48c4-aee2-6d663bd19b7d/image0.jpeg Guitar Nerds click here... This is just me and my buddy Cole Reeves hangin' out with Gene Watson..... Gene is one of the kindest people in the Country & Western business. He still sings like its 1975 and he still walks the walk and talks the talk.... He's the Singer's Singer.... A true legend in his time. https://gabetononmusic.com/music daily 0.75 2023-08-18 https://gabetononmusic.com/about daily 0.75 2023-08-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64ce8c777ce3de20eaac6675/bae6b9f7-4159-46c5-b5ab-f55e74f40102/image5.jpg https://gabetononmusic.com/home daily 1.0 2023-08-05 https://gabetononmusic.com/tour daily 0.75 2024-05-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64ce8c777ce3de20eaac6675/469fe195-f33b-41df-9dc6-9b72f312cffd/image0+%281%29.jpg https://gabetononmusic.com/contact daily 0.75 2023-08-05
