Notes
Uncle Larry takes a stroll on a sweet old transition logo Fender …through an old Fender amp from the same year

I think of it as “transitional tone” that was available in any real music store in America in 1965, just as Leo was being asked to step down and take a 10 year break from building anything with the no compete clause that the CBS suits so wisely put in the contract when they bought the second best guitar company in American history

and...here is the most interesting interview in country music history

and...this guy gets it

if you guys wanna donate to the cause of keeping country music country, please consider throwing something in the old tip jar...to potentially pay for e-bike related ER trips and black vulture removal
