The Shark Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 My buddy Dr. Jay Haskett walked into my shop in 1989 with Clarence's Vibrolux and maple neck sunburst Strat. Paid a ton for them, but the combo was incredible. He was Jay's hero, so we were given a short primer on all his cool licks and techniques. A truly underrated guitarist. Years later he bought White's Bell Coral Sitar too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordsoftheJungle Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Very cool, I love Marty's playing and I love his band's name, "The Fabulous Superlatives", lol. IIRC, at least one of them was playing glittery countrified RS Guitarworks teles, also very cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Haynie Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 RS Guitarworks makes Kenny Vaughn's signature guitar as well as matching instruments for the band. They have worked on Clarence, too. It is cool that Marty talks about honoring the guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JES1680 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 I'm not much of a country fan, but Marty can shred on the mandolin, and I really like Kenny's playing. His solo stuff is pretty fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willie G. Moseley Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Tremendous player, of course, but one unique and impressive thing about Stuart is his historian facet. Has done extensive research on country music history, and imparts it very well on camera. It's not surprising Ken Burns used him a lot...but there might have been a bit of video payola on account Stuart got his own brief profile segement...but so what... Stuart's photo book Pilgrims is also well done, and has been in my office library for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
