    "Some of Shelley's Blues"

    This may have been posted before. The video is a little blurry... but I like this version. In the comments, someone identifies the guitar as a F-30 12.

    "Native Sons" - Los Lobos

    I've really been enjoying the new album by Los Lobos, Native Sons. It is an album of cover songs that reflect the musical influences on band members as they were growing up in East LA and during the early years of the band in the 1970's. The music styles range from Rock & Roll, Soul, R&B, Blues...

    "Hurricane Party"

    Here's a great cover of the James McMurtry song Hurricane Party played by Keith Goggin on a mid-70's Guild F-412. The song starts around the 36:00 minute mark of this coffee house performance

    Wolf Alice - "Bobby" (Live)

    Discovered this band in my YouTube queue. Don't really know much about them... but they have been around since 2012. I noticed the well-travelled Starfire I bass right away!

    Keith Richards & James Cotton

    This may have been posted before, but it is the first time that I have seen it. Keith Richards playing a custom-made Guild 10-string acoustic. In the early 70's, Keith switched to playing guitar exclusively in "G" tuning. At some point, he famously removed the low E string on his guitars to...

    Chris Hillman Guild SF I Bass

    I just stumbled onto this video. What a cool looking Bass with the Byrds logo at the 12th fret. I am embarrassed to say that I didn't know he was the original Bass player with the Byrds. I always think of him as a guitar player and mandolin player (w/ Manassas; Souther, Hillman, Furay Band...

    Maggie Rogers on Tiny Desk

    I stumbled onto this singer/songwriter. Don't know much about her, but I like her style. She is playing a beautiful, vintage sunburst F-30. Check it out:

    "Harvest Moon"

    A great cover of the Neil Young classic song... with beautiful harmony vocals and a Guild acoustic-bass guitar. (I will leave it to someone else to identify the model!)

    June Carter & Johnny Cash

    Here's June Carter and Johnny Cash on the show Rainbow Quest with Pete Seeger. The video quality is poor, but the sound is good. June appears to be playing a sunburst Guild F-30. I first saw this video clip on the Ken Burns PBS documentary "Country Music". As others have noted, Johnny Cash looks...

    "Maybellene"

    Discovered this gem on another guitar forum (UMGF). One of my favorite Chuck Berry tunes! It features some nice, clean fingerpicking on a Guild F-212. The bottleneck break is played on a 1930 Gibson L-5 archtop. Check it out! :onthego:

    "Small Victory"

    I enjoyed this performance by Garnet Rogers. I like the story that the song tells about a retired racehorse, and I like the sound of his vintage L-00. I believe that the guitar is tuned to DADGAD. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wED7a_WRDkg

    "Operator"

    A great cover of the Jim Croce classic song. These kids can really play and sing! And they have good taste in music, too. I can call them kids 'cause I'm in my 60's. :onthego: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oP2X0yLfHY

    "My Walking Stick"

    Here's another performance by Irish Folksinger Freddie White. I like his arrangement of this old Irving Berlin song from the movie "Alexander's Ragtime Band". He is playing his 'hog topped D-25 (as identified by Westerly Wood). It is apparently a favorite axe of his, because it is featured in a...

    "The Parting Glass"

    I enjoyed this performance by Irish folksinger Freddie White. He appears to be playing a well-worn D-35. "The Parting Glass" is an Irish folksong that dates from the 1700's. It was recorded by The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem in the 1960's. It expresses the sentiment... " Let's have one more...

    Kudos to an LTG member!

    I opened up the current issue of Acoustic Guitar magazine (October) and discovered a full page review of Glenn Jones' (wileypickett) new CD "The Giant Who Ate Himself (and Other New Works for 6 and 12 String Guitar)". There is a nice photo of Glenn playing a beautiful Guild mahogany-top...

    Dallas Cowboys Training Camp

    Reading the Sports page this morning, I discovered that the Cowboys Training Camp is in Oxnard, CA. I wonder if any of the players or coaches are interested in visiting the Guild factory during their free time? :rugby:
