Having a high end acoustic guitar in the truck?

We didn’t mention kieth Richards he’s one of the best rhythm guitarist as far as I’m concern and a good lead also

 

A few more of the "good 'uns" - Chet Atkins, Jerry Reed, Chuck Berry, Brad Paisley, Joe Walsh, Alex Lifeson and on and on and on.....

Funny thing is, when these people get to a level of making a living at playing they really don't care who is the best; they just strive to be the best that they can be. All of them are excellent in their own right, but none of them are excellent at everything. If all music were the same, it wouldn't be worth listening to!

EDIT: My opinion: A big truck is not a place for a high end instrument of any kind. Too much could happen to it! Get a decent low end instrument and have at it; take what you learn and amaze yourself how well you sound on the good 'un at home.

 

I used a battery powered roland Micro cube for almost 2 years in the truck, with my Strat and it performed adequately. I use headphones so I'm bot bothering anyone amd I can play as loud as I want. But you dont even need that anymore. There are alot of guitar plugs ins. Just find an audio interface of your preference and your laptop, plug the guitar to A/I , A/I to the PC , fire up the plugin and proceed to make tunes.

I'm using the Fortin NTS Suite. I mainly play my Schecter C-1 Platinum (Which I believe is called the Damien now) as Its a medal oriented guitar, but the strat does fine when I need a little clearer tone.
For home use I have a Boss Katana 50, which can also be used and controlled through the Laptop and it gives a bunch of simulated pedals and effect to fart around with.

I almost Bought a Dean Dimebag signature a few days ago. I'm surprised that I wasnt thrown out of the store. I came back a second day to compare it to several(15) other guitars and it just was speaking to me like no other. The nonsense that I subjected those poor employees to was rediculous. Lol

 

Don't forget Jeff Beck! He has a style no other guitarist has been able to copy.

 

You’re absolutely right about that. It seems like he’s underrated amongst fans , but virtually every great guitar player (including many mentioned in this thread) will tell you he’s the greatest. He’s a fan of so many types of music - more like fanatical- and it shows in the way he is able to effortlessly play any style imaginable.

Showtime did a pretty interesting show on him. I forget what it’s called, but it was about his guitar work of course, but also showed his love of building race cars by himself, by hand. Pretty interesting

 

JEFF BECK: STILL ON THE RUN.

 

Is this the "new" grave? I believe RVZ's remains were moved about 20 yrs ago. Myself, I'd really like to visit Allen Collin's grave. I think I'd trade all of my earthly possessions to hold his Firebird in my hands.
Great post! OP, get an upper-shelf Epiphone for the truck and call it good.
