He’s so good in such a different way. He doesn’t just shred or play super fast. He just really plays and it’s so pleasant to listen to. And it’s clean. I want a whole iTunes album of lemmos guitar of the day segments 😂

Jen’s laugh after lemmo talking about the “Wide-D” neck shape cracked me up😂

I've got a 1965/6 FJN (folk, jumbo, natural), which is similar, but a slightly larger body. These "folk" Gibbies make excellent acoustic lap slide guitars, with their wider nut, uncompensated saddle, and 12th fret neck joint, which moves the bridge into the middle of the soundboard. They were designed to be used with nylon, silk and steel, or steel strings (may load soundboard with medium gauge). The essential Kelly Joe Phelps used a FJN on his first two recordings, which is where I got the idea from. If you haven't heard his "Lead Me On", you are in for a treat.......!

Yea Mike - Just your everyday run of the mill "cowboy chords"! Sounding great as usual!
-
Anyone else enchanted by what he was playing

Michael continues to display why he is the top guitarist on the internet. His creative genius continues to shine on GOTD and we are the lucky recipients of his incredible talents. This guitar has exquisite tone and the fishman pick-up was a much needed addition but Michael please tell us, plugged into what? How much reverb? We want all your secrets revealed.

With respect, Lemmo you bring new meaning to utility player.

Got one that someone had stood on and a Dog had bitten a piece out of the underside. Plays a dream . That string spacing and the Brazilian Rosewood fretboard. Cool.

That Folk Singer did a little rockin' tonight!

I have one of these that I got nearly fifty years ago for fifteen dollars and that I learned to play on. It is truly special and I cherish it to this day.
