_ _ _ _ _ Can I get you to do that?
_ _ _ _ Why not? _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Menacing.

[C] _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ [A] _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _
When it sounds good, it sounds dead right
on that, _ between the middle and bridge.
That [Am] was_
That was the sound, you know, [Em] that sort of banjo.

[Am] _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Yeah, that'll do. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Very _ nice.
The [N] repro and the original, they take me back,
that brownie takes me back to a state of mind
and a state of capability.
It didn't look much different to the way it looks now,
I don't think, you know.
What [C] I would always look for [N] on a strap was a maple neck
that had been worn out. _ _
_ You know, that was the thing.
If it looked brand new, then it was obviously, you know,
it was like a restaurant.
If there's lots of people in there, you know,
it's got to be good food.
_ So I just thought if it had all those kind of worn-out patches,
it meant that it had been, you know, well favoured.
So that would_
This probably would have pretty much been what it was like
when I bought it.
Right.
_ [G] And, you know, to go back to _ why that would be is that, you know,
I saw _ Buddy Holly [E] holding one, Buddy Holly played one,
and, you know, all those records [N] that he made,
it sounded like it was really, really quiet, you know,
and the tone, you know, it was_
He played it like an acoustic guitar a lot of the time. _ _ _
So _ it had that initial appeal to me when I was a kid.
But then somewhere down the road I went to the marquee
and saw Buddy Guy, [G#] and I heard Buddy Guy on an album
[A] called Folk Festival of [E] the Blues, where he was the new kid
on the block playing with Muddy and Howlin' Wolf,
and they were all singing, and he just launched into this solo
_ that killed everybody dead, you know.
[N] And then I went to see him at play _ and he was bouncing it off the floor,
_ you know, playing it behind his_
between his legs, behind his head, but taking it off
and throwing it on the floor and bouncing it and catching it and playing.
I mean, all these kind of tricks that obviously had been going on,
you know, _ for those guys for a long time,
and everyone was up to that apparently back then.
And it was, you know, went out a little bit,
and he didn't use, you know, the wang bar.
It was all, _ man, I thought, this is the sound, and then Hendrix, _ yeah.
And Jimmy was playing one while I was still playing an SG.
_ And I didn't get to it then, but I got to it right away afterwards.
And I think the problem was trying to find the _ Maple Necks.
You know, they weren't that.
You know, _ all the models that were current at that time
had rosewood fingerboards.
So they'd kind of gone out of circulation, this end of the scene anyway.
It wasn't until I went through the States on tour
that I started picking them up in pawn shops and record shops for a song,
you know, and I'd buy four or five at a time.
_ So that comes back to me, you know, when I pick up these guitars.
That all comes back to me, doing the Johnny Cash show,
_ [C]
you know, with [E] Carl Perkins, man.
I mean, touring with that in a quartet [C] that was quieter, funky,
very, very strong, all of it hinged on the toughness of this guitar.
There's a lot involved.
There is a nostalgic [A] thing _ about my own journey,
_ _ let alone the journey of the guitar.
The two things _ combine. _ _
