Better yet, Miles Davis on Don Cherry: "But I didn't like what they (Ornette and Don Cherry) were playing, especially Don Cherry on that little horn he had. It just looked to me like he was playing...
A Charlie Christian style pickup does it for me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AI2ea1VAFeU

Bu the way, Fender needs to change the name of that guitar since its color no longer even remotely resembles the color of it's namesake, Lake Placid. Maybe rename it after one of these? -- 10...
