Yes, for sure...part of the Fender sound. The blend enables a mix of the front & back pick-ups. Others may reply with a more technical explanation, but for a true restoration, you should include the blend wheel.

From a Fretboard Journal interview (#11 Fall 2008):

"No, there was an MXR phase shifter. I had a very peculiar one, and I also had Dan Armstrong's Purple Peeker."

In reference to the Running On Empty solo.

Aired today 6/12/15...
Terry Gross excerpted interviews with Ornette, his son Denardo (1987 & 1995), Charles Haden (1985) & Don Cherry (1990).

Didn't see this here on SGF so thought I'd post it.

[quote="Stephen Abruzzo"]For starters, Cooder's Strat doesn't sound like a Strat because.....he doesn't have Strat pups in it. He has a lap steel Valco pup in the bridge and a Teisco pup in the neck, which is an outstanding clear pup for slide work. This may be slightly off topic...here's ...

Turned it on last night just to catch Dale Watson...gotta agree with all the comments...taste, tone and a cool tune.
Dale will be in Milwaukee & Madison, WI at the end of July...gonna have to catch one of those shows.

Thanks for the link.

Yes, yes and yes to Ernest Ranglin!
I have two records, Below The Bassline from 1996 and Rocksteady from 2004.
Next up...Memories of Barber Mack...thanks for the suggestion.

This looks to be the same guitar used during the Spain tour of 2006 which resulted in the Love is Strange CD. The liner notes from that release indicate the guitar is built by John McGrath. Thanks go to Paul for the post. Check out the clip Stay/Love Is Strange from that YouTube page for more Lindle...

That's an eye popper for sure!

Not to make all of you out~of~state folks jealous, but I'm looking forward to hearing this one in person at some point in the near future.

Mark, any chance you'll be drivin' this rig at Orton Park or the Gandy Dancer Festival?

Mitch, I s'pose these questions could be directed to the folks at Origin Jazz, but I'll take a chance here and offer my opinion. This appears to be an overview of Bob Dunn the steel guitarist, not the bandleader. According to the website info, the tracks are mastered from original 78's...perhaps tho...

Thanks for posting the linky!

I first heard about this project in 2008 and have checked back with Origin a few times since then...glad to see it's now available...I'll be waiting for delivery as well.

Dave ~ Thought I'd pitch in again before this wayward thread fades..."The Road" is a grim tale of survival in extreme circumstances, a bit of the gruesome for sure...still a good tale in the telling. Really is no section in the Forum for this type of discussion to be moved to as the focus ...

Naah..."No Country For Old Men" next to it is the one to go for...just read it last week, and as much as I like the Coen brothers, wish I hadn't seen the film beforehand. Going through a Cormac McCarthy phase, also read "The Road" and just started his first "The Orchard Keep...

Ron, I have one from the early 60's...I still call it a Stringmaster...just curious, what's the sellers price?

Thought I'd chime in and recommend this fine recording...available from Acoustic Disc.
Echo the comments regarding the "Blues & Bluegrass" record...

Chuck,

I think the full film can be viewed online at the PBS American Masters website.

As others have said, a good program worth catching.
