This was a featured Video on Google/YouTube today (at least it was on my homepage).
Gotta love seeing and hearing the great R.L. Burnside in his work boots showing us all how its done. Note the metal plate between his first fret and nut that seems to be giving this department store guitar its unique tone.
His impeccable rhythm and great vocals don't hurt either.

- Kalamazoo Tube Amp In Boston Area For $299
Kalamazoo amps are sort of hit or miss. Some people love them - I think they are just okay. This is an interesting one because it was designed a bass amp so with 7591 tubes it should be much more powerful than a more common s;tudent amp like a Kalamazoo...

You don't see these 4 pickup Kent's everyday. And you thought your Teisco had a busy control plate - check this out - 8 knobs and at least 5 switches (is that a phase switch by the output jack?)! Don't expect Gibson...
