Saw this on YouTube. Think Vox had a lot of extra pots and switches around in 1966?

I was so happy to see that Wilko is doing well.

Marty Stuart Playing Clarence White Telecaster

November 27, 2014

Marty Stuart purchased Clarence White’s original Parsons/White B-Bender and gigs with it all the time. Great to see this iconic guitar played. Especially by a great player like Marty. If you look close you can see Marty use his shoulder to use the B-Bender. It is very subtle the technique he uses to string bend.

First Recording Using Fender Stratocaster?

November 26, 2014

“You say you wanna revolution?” The Fender Stratocaster seemed to start one with this early recording.

This Pee Wee Crayton recoding from 1954 is thought to be the first recoding using to use a Fender Stratocaster given to him by Leo Fender. Recorded on April 29th, 1954. Pee Wee took this brand new red strat to a recording studio in New Orleans and recorded “Do Unto Others.” Amazingly the opening riff should sound pretty familiar to Beatle fans. Wonder if the Beatles ever heard this?
