I saw a Youtube.com clip on Jerry Douglas doing some fantastic sounds on a tele. Wonderful song and great bends. I was wondering if anyone can help me on pulling that up on yourtube.com. I can pull it up and this youtube can be challenging.. All help appreciated.
Thanks..

| One of the old shows TNN had when they first started had Jerry Douglas (or at least that's what I remember from the credits) on a guitar, but playing with a bar and finger picks. |

Jerry Douglas does in fact play a custom Tele with a square neck, and last year, I believe at Bonaroo, he was on stage jamming with the Allman Brothers Band playing this guitar, which is also used on his latest solo cd, "The Best Kept Secret" I think there is a photo of this on his website:

So you weren't far off...

Donahue-
but there's more than one Jerry on a Tele, albeit a horse of a different color.

Quite a few years ago I saw JERRY DOUGLAS performing with THE WHITES. He was playing a TELE in his lap. His lead lines and fills were flawless and tasteful, as you would expect! I don't think any of the great pedal players could have done a better job. JMO!

Wow-I didn't realize JerryD was playing a lap Tele back then.
Was this when he was a regular band member, or a later gig where he might have been sitting in?
Even though I love pedal steel and am trying to learn the thing, Jerry is the best illustration on how there is PLENTY of music to be found on six strings-be it a dobro, weissenborn or a lap steel!
He doesn't have to take a back seat to anyone in the steel guitar world-or just about any other musical instrument world.
