bluenote Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Recently I discovered the amazing talent of Johnny A. I would not have known about him without finding the Johnny A signature guitar (a real beauty) on the Gibson site. What a great sound this man (and his band) creates! I haven't seen this kind of playing for a very long time. I think that maybe when he was a kid h must have listened to the likes of Duane Eddy and Chet Atkins. I see that he is a kind of contemporary version of them. I love his tunes like "Hip Bone" and others like his version of "The Wind Cries Mary" For those who haven't had the listening pleasure just check out Johnny A on YouTube!

(#138). he had a hand in customizing it w/gibson. it's an incredible instrument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
