duluthdan Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 //youtu.be/8LHE1DeXvlk I am hoping one of these embeds properly. Ray Wylie Hubbard has such a simple style and great songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fortyearspickn Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Thanks Dan. Yeppers. RWH is great. Anyone looking for a lighthearted tune - try his "Snake Farm" If you're in a darker mood - here's a link (I hope) to his "Wanna Rock N Roll" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigKahune Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 . Dan & FYP - Whenever you have a YouTube clip that begins with "https://" take the "s" out to unsecure it and it will embed. (You can hit "Reply" to my comment and see it in my quote - no "s".) Nice clips. . B) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LHE1DeXvlk&feature=youtu.be http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjfusLS-jws .

JuanCarlosVejar Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 I think that's not a Dwight Yoakom model (I don't see the dice) Looks to me like a J160e JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duluthdan Posted July 16, 2015 Author Share Posted July 16, 2015 I think that's not a Dwight Yoakom model (I don't see the dice) Looks to me like a J160e JC I watched again. You are right - no dice. Has the old mid fifties large pick guard, ands some sort of pickup mounted down near the bridge. Curiously has the control knobs mounted too. Could be a 160 thats been modified.

philfish Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 He's one of the great song writers from the Texas scene, back in the day. Jerry Jeff Walker turned us on to so many of them. I do his song Dead Poets Dream And his Gibsons sound so nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayoubengal1954 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I've gotten to see him live twice. Once just as a solo and once in a trio with his son on electric guitar and a young fella on drums. Both great shows. That night he played a "Frankenstein" Gibson he has described on his FB page as a "58 southern jumbo with a 1949 j45 neck that tony nobles did the work on". Here is his full description of his guitars in 2013: "i play a 1943 gibson southern jumbo reissue or 58 southern jumbo with a 1949 j45 neck that tony nobles did the work on. for open d or g i use a 62 j45 i got from charlies guitar in dallas. clay gave me a hell of a deal on cause it was beat up and gnarly but hey so am i. i have tony put dearmonds on all my guitars behind the soundhole which i run into a tuner into a sexdrive into either a 63 fender super for big shows or a magnatone twilighter or now a magnatone lyric. i also have a k&k acoustic pickup in the jumbos that i run into a tuner into a redeye direct box into a schertier acoustic amp with a 10'' speaker. i run them both at the same time so i get a warm non quacky sound with the k&k and a nasty half assed gritty lightnin hopkins tone with the dearmond. i highly recommend the redeye. i have used demeter tube preamps and love them but the redeye in my old wore out ears opinion beats 'em. seems every cool guitar player i liked in austin was using the alan durham sexdrive pedal so i got one and i just leave it on as it takes out the harshness of the b string. lucas got two of 'em, leaves one on and then pops on the other for a boost. lets see..i think thats it." Maybe he further modified the Frankenstein guitar or he has added a J160E to his stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
