Nice work, Troy. I could listen to that Rick 12 all day. The main changes of that song are the same as "Cherry, Cherry", "That's what I like about you", and "R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A". And if you want to make it jangle even more, try out a JangleBox. I have an old MXR DynaComp and a JangleBox 2 and it's no contest; the JB2 wins easily. Keep 'em coming. Tom

Thanks Tom! Yes I definitely have a Jangle Box on my Christmas wish list!

When I bought my Janglebox, I never looked back. In fact, I rarely use the Dyna Comp now since I'm so pleased with the Janglebox.

Always sounded like Campbell was playing a Ric 12-string on this one to me. Good choice picking that guitar up for this track, Troy! Have you ever heard Walls (Circus)? Campbell sounds like he's Ricking away on that track, too.

Hey Jake...oh man She's The One is one of my favorites. I think Petty did some of his best work during the Wildflowers/She's The One/Echo time period from 94-99. I still listen to that one quite a bit. Yes that does sound like a Rick 12 on there to me also.
