Title: Les Paul & Mary Ford, Chet Atkins etc
Post by: HarmySandwhich on September 30, 2007, 02:36:27 pm

It's unlikely that anyone would respond [seeing as no one does when I make a thread about an artist...] but does anyone like Les Paul & Mary Ford or Chet Atkins? They're more of an artist that a guitar player would be interested in [i'm a guitar player] but whatever.

Here's some short clips of Chet Atkins, one of my favourite guitar players:

I'm a huge fan of Chet Atkins and Les Paul [with Mary Ford]

It's a Gretsch G5120 Hollowbody. I'm going to get one myself if I get the job that I applied for. I'll be getting this one:

Those Gretsch guitars are amazing.  Kudos to you for good taste, both Les and Chet as well as those guitars.


Wow...how much is that guitar going to set you back?
