sparquelito Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Danny Gatton was a one of a kind player. A really nice guy, and a complex, deep individual. And a vintage car/truck guy too, which I really like. He is missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saturn Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Totally agree. Here's one of my all time favorite clips of the late DG: He was playing a TowelyCaster :) Seriously though. All the time that him and Roy Buchanan lived and played around here, and I never saw either one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made it look so easy and did it all with only the tone knob on his Tele, the only foot pedals he used with on and off reverb and tremolo.Plus two Fender Virbrolux cranked to 10!

Don't forget his Magic Dingus Box. Controlled a Leslie and an Echoplex with it, and he used them as a looper way back then! In the late 90's I had 4 teles with Bardens in each, because of well, you know. rct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Californiaman Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Whether it's Gatton, Buchanan, or Collins, we should all aspire to such great heights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
