Not trying to hijack here, but I got a tour of the Fender factory recently. Awesome stuff.

They had a guitar in the custom shop that Eric Clapton ordered... to match his new Mercedes.

They still make amps with tubes instead of transistors. They have customers that insist the sound is better with tubes.

Yeah I love it when he will put a Hendrix "quote" in the middle of a solo.
I like Dick Dale a lot too. Get Unknown Territory if you don't have it already.

I still have my Stratocaster I bought in 1965 for 320 bucks...I turned down an offer of $4,000 from a guy that plays in a Ragge band at the Ocean Deck here in Daytona. Any offers ? It is mint with a sunburst finish, fretboard is rosewood still looks new. The Kustom amp I had with it is still working great...Twin 15 Jensens It has tubes as well.

But im afraid my old lady would kill me if I bought another guitar LOL.

a true conduit..
I mean.. the guy was unconcious when he played ( a good thing btw).. he channeled it from somewhere else..

amazing and from the soul
he'd close his eyes and be IN the music.. gone
