Well there I think we gots ourself somebody who don't like us ol' southern boys especially our #1 git pickin' son. I got my Lynryd Skynyrd moonshine still right out in the back yard here there boy and I puts on my SRV ten gallon everytime I wants to woop it up. I just fill 'er up and boom!

Just the reverse of that Bob. Before I got back into surf, my set was SRV, Albert Collins, Albert King and Dickie Betts....the hat crack was a take off on an earlier post..got nothin' but mucho respect for Southern pickers..I think it's in the water there. My family is from Italy..no moonshine ..grappa!

I like SRV, his hat and his Strat.

I also like Heather Locklear.

Just sayin'.

Steel wooling the back of a guitar's neck serves a purpose. Grinding down the paint on the front in an exact pattern replica of Andy Summer's Tele?

Doesn't.

The purpose of doing that is to jack up the price by "giving rich punters what they what." Sad little micro-d**ks.

I believe in relic'ing my own instruments. I take such good care of my stuff it can never be relic'ed.

George, I was just joking, I'm from MA, I do like blues and agree the South has produced the majority of good blues.
