Kenny Vaughan & Otis Gibbs

Kenny gives a little history on Teles, Strats, Squires, Leo Fender, Les Paul, Fender amps and more.

Cool stuff. One thing I've read, that he didn't mention, Merle Travis was in that clique too and worked with Bigsby on stuff.

Yeah, Leo borrowed the headstock shape from the Bigsby/Travis early guitar for the Strat.

Kenny said doesn’t know how many Telecasters he owns. Nice problem. :)

I love to read and hear that history stuff from that time frame.
How cool would it have been to be in that crowd?

That book he mentions, Birth of Loud, is fantastic.
