And I don't know, I think that's probably the biggest contribution, why I remain one of the few soloists out there.

Johnny Shine said he played a Kalamazoo just like this one here.

All right, all right. I got you there. I got you there. All right. Well, when you want that nice full sound out of the guitar, you've got to have a nice little rhythm behind you, and that could be just about anything. Let's try this one.
