    Maybe it’s just me but it’s weird seeing a Gretsch without a Bigsby on it. But it did sound awfully good in Lemmo’s hands. I could easily see having a Gretsch as a 2nd guitar if I didn’t have the $ for a Gibson 335 variant.

X is a formidable live act with a deep catalogue and billy zoom gets such an unbelievable sound that people like Brian setzer use him as their “amp doctor” …billy modifies amps like a surgeon besides being a ferocious rockabilly punk player…the silver jet is a heavy uncomfortable guitar in my hands but in Billy’s…that’s a match made in heaven 👍

    Maybe it's that street walker look she's tapping into. It's no longer edibles at night it's more like edible at night. Jen loves her job and we love Jen. It's the giggle at the end of the camera with the faceless charm that makes GOTD home at Norm's Rare Guitars. Why are they rare? Because you have to a 10%'r to own one.

    That guitar, um, you know, um, like that, um, thing that, um , you do...um. Michael, you need to be aware of this, and consciously monitor your speech. Being prepared to talk about the guitar is the first step. Write it down in a logical order and talk about every guitar in this order. Write it down in order in big letters and keep your cheat sheet just off camera. Eventually you'll have the order down and the flow will be more cogent.
