Terry Kath
 

My current avatar and one of the many tragic rock and roll deaths of the 70s. Step into the way back machine and imagine you are an up and coming guitar player in the early 70s. This song and guitar solo comes out and the world turns upside down. Even Jimi Hendrix praised Terry Kath as an absolute MONSTER.

1971. Forty ****ing six years ago.

Jimi Hendrix was also a fan of Billy Gibbons and Clarence White.

Gibson asked Les Paul (the person, not the guitar) for input when they redesigned the Les Paul (the guitar, not the person) in the late 60s and he convinced them to use low impedance pick ups, his favorite p-ups because the clear tone they produce. They made three models Personal/Profession/Recording. They had possibly the cleanest tone you could get from a guitar.
