All this talk lately, in Gear Lust, about making modifications and what's special about Telecaster guitars inspired me to take mine out of the case this morning and plug it in....just to reinforce what I already knew: They're great and versatile guitars for any style of music. Which caused me to look up Roy Buchanan on youtube playing Hey Joe. No frills just a Tele and a Fender Twin Reverb amp (or Super Reverb not sure) with the reverb cranked up in the hands of skilled player...One of the greats!

Enjoy,

Farrell

There's a great comment on the YouTube page:

QuoteMy Telecaster does not sound like this. I'll have to return it.

propos de Roy Buchanam

Farrel disait:

QuoteOne of the greats!

indeed certainly one of the great masters of the Telecaster
I didn't know Roy Buchanam, thanks Farrell Jackson for the discovery,...and so I looked at his biography on Wiki and his discography on You tube

An impressive and sober version of Hey Joe

Sweet Dream is certainly a great standard covered by a multitude of guitarist cover on YT

...I'm making a version of sweet dream on my weissenborn...so see you soon on SC Cover
