    I agree that the blue should’ve been the main color for the Paisley series! Great interview!

    Fun fact: there was a Paisley Strat made. It was offered to me in 1982, along with a Strat in Lucite. Both are one of one.

    Paisley Telecasters are iconic. I wanted one, but had no money. What I did have was a Squier Jim Root Tele, which I covered with black and silver paisley wrapping paper from Tesco, then sprayed a black burst around the outside to hide the paper edges, and went over it with clear coat. I still have that guitar, and one day will get around to featuring it in a video.

    It would be criminal if Bill Crook doesn't make this type of '67 Paisley wall paper. Please, I'll pay the full $4500+ to get a Crook Paisley in this color, because I would never trust myself with an original '67, nor would I pay that un-Godly price for an original. Beautiful guitar, and a great interview!

      @@thezakkuhnshow I'd like to see either Marcus King, Zach Bryan, or Zach Top on the show.
      I'm more of a BP and John Mayer fan and type guitarist, but Marcus King is my third favorite triple-threat guitarist from our era. Every time he plays "Goodbye Carolina", he plays his solo in a very special and unique way that's obviously southern blues, but it's such an intricate and technical way that makes others have to think, yet it's so natural to him. And he's singing and writing that song from the perspective of his friend who he lost to suicide, which is the alternate theme of this song along with lost love and heartbreak.
      Zach Bryan is the first artist in a long time where I've genuinely been eager to listen to the stuff he's releasing who's also pretty mainstream. Brad Paisley was one of my favorites (still my favorite guitarist), but he's receded in popularity. Jason Isbell, Tyler Childers, Sturgill Simpson, Colter Wall, and John Moreland are amazing and lyrical geniuses, but you'd have to look for them because Nashville for a long time refused to release or air guys like them. But ZLB, he's both mainstream and growing, and he's coming from a scene that's outside of Nashville. I was hooked when I heard "68 Fastback" as a little private in MCT Camp Pendleton last year, and his music has gotten me through some tough times. The way how he writes and sings, it's lo-fi, yet so relatable. He's the first artist in a long time who has made sorrow and youth and Mama and home something worth singing about, instead of just muddy trucks and beer and one-night-stands with a girl in some cut-off jeans (though he's lacking in pedal steel, though he has plenty of fiddle). He's amazing, and as a Marine it'd be cool to see what this sailor has to write and release in the near future.
      And Zach Top, I haven't heard someone that sounds as good and traditional as him. The closest mainstream guys I've heard that are traditionalists from the 2010s are guys like CoJo, Jon Pardi, Aaron Watson, and Midland. And then Zach comes around, and it's like he's a rebirth of Alan and King George. He's so good, that even "Cold Beer and Country Music" as cliche as it sounds, still sounds more genuine and authentic than whatever is released on what Grady Smith would call the "Kendall Line" on music row in Nashville. And "The Sun" is just beautiful, such a pleasing and romantic song. Plus, he's not bad at picking, he's one of the few artists today that can handle and use a Brent Mason signature.
      Any of those guys, I feel would be some great interviews to have featured on the show. Can't wait to see what you have coming up next!

    Brad purchased a Train Wreck head that I sold back to Ken Fischer and it was sold to close mutual friend Bernie that passed away. There were 2 heads. 1 Brad purchased and the other one went to a collector in Japan. The head Brad purchased blew up a couple months later.

      @@thezakkuhnshow : Cause I was young and stupid! I was very fortunate to work or should I say learn from Kenny and also Dennis Kager from Sundown amps. I spent almost my entire life in the music industry working at the original Kramer factory in Neptune,NJ then BC Rich. Had a “Real Book” AKA Fake Book distribution for for a few years and got to work closely and become personal friends with tons of famous people. Myself and Joe Naylor later owner and operator of Reverand Guitars was my roommate at Luthier school so I had a blast and made big money and spent it! Anyways both those Train Wreck’s got sold through Hoboken Vintage Guitar shop in Hoboken,NJ through my good friend Jimmy Pasch who was the previous owner of Outlaw Guitars in Greenbrook, NJ and sadly both shops are no longer around. When CD’s came around and later Internet crap then it was time to move on. Both Ken Fischer and Dennis Kager have sadly now passed away so things have drastically changed and not for the for the better.

      @@thezakkuhnshow : Because I was young and stupid! I was very fortunate to work with Ken Fischer early on as well as Dennis Kager from Sundown amps. At the time I had a huge “Fake Book” AKA Real Book distribution and just buying up gear as a teenager. Later I went to Luthier school and my roommate was Joe Naylor who later became owner/operator of Reverand Guitars. I then went to work at the original Kramer factory in Neptune,NJ then BC Rich but always loved the amp business more. I got to work and become personal friends with some of the most famous musicians ever and even traded or purchased gear from some. I purchased that head from Kenny for $1250.00 and when I sold it back to him it was a trade for 2 early Traynor YBA-1 heads that Kenny had modified. When Bernie passed away a close mutual friend name Jimmy Pasch who had Outlaw Guitars in Greenbrook,NJ and then Hoboken Vintage in Hoboken,NJ purchased both heads from the estate. That’s how Brad got one and a guy in Japan from what I know later got the other. Once CD’s came out and the Internet happened, the decline of the music business was evident and so I moved on. I had Shamrock Amps for a while and still repair amps maybe 10X a year selectively but it’s in no way the fun it was or the money generator it was. I will say this, the story’s from the early NAMM shows are wild, the factory days were absolutely crazy!
