www.3-string-guitar.com Visit there and learn more about these guitars. I was watching youtube user rpeek (Richard) tonight and his ratrod videos and I was suddenly inspired with and wanted to capture a “visual sound”….I wanted to recreate his cool cars and an exhaust kinda feel and make my guitar sound like the looks of his car …I knew to get that rippin’ sound I would need a 3 sting because a 4 or 6 just won’t give me those long distances on my fretboard that I needed so I could use to get that nasal quality I was hearing in my head…sometimes trying to play what you hear in your head is difficult, epically when a riff just comes to you out of the blue, I wished it happened more often, allot of times my playing gets stuck in a rutt, anyways i just made up this little ditty johnny on the spot and uploaded it….it’s ruff and is the first take and just one take…what you hear is what there was..but man….sounded much cooler in real life….had my hair standing up…… I had the gain at 10 and my homemade muffy squawkin’! want to see more?? Just Goggle Red Dog Guitars!

Those may be old and rusty hot rods, but that’s some sweet soulful blues. Excellent work!

Deep fried, greeezy, spooky. Perfect for the ghosts in that rat rod graveyard. First takes are always the best.

John, Love the video. The guitar sounds great. Huanting slide work man. I’m sad to see the cars going to waste. They should be on the road blowin smoke and scare’n women and children.

@MyScrewloose theres a lot of good artists who have used slide guitar over the years. some of my favourites are mississippi fred macdowell, the black keys, the white stripes, junior kimbrough, rl burnside and many more.
