![]() So I went and I got a Martin, and I love it! He knew what he was talking about. Use Gibsons more for your electric purposes.' Of course, the song was originally written by Dean Dillon and Linda Hargrove, and first recorded by David Allan Coe and then George Jones, but Taj here takes a run at the bluesy Chris Stapleton arrangement. Dan said, 'They're the best acoustic guitars anyway. His guitar cover of Chris Stapleton’s Tennessee Whiskey version is downright phenomenal. He has a candy store full of guitars, and he said, 'Well, why don't you go and take the check and get a Martin.' Because kind enough to send me enough to get a Martin. He has certainly come along way Which do you prefer His instrumental take, or his. And so the airline sent me a check, but they didn't send me enough to buy another small-bodied, parlour-room-style Gibson.Īnd so I was sitting with Dan and I told him, 'Man! I'm out of business, and I've got some shows coming up this week and the rest of the month, but I don't have another guitar.' Thought we'd put Taj's Tennessee Whiskey collection to date in one video. But I was coming back from the Winnipeg Folk Festival, and it got destroyed. I got the guitar because my other guitar was modeled after Robert Johnson's, the L-1 Gibson. What do you like about the sound of the guitar? I wish it still smelled like that now it smells like the dirty clothes that I keep in the guitar case!

After I had chosen it, he asked me what the serial number was because he was making out the ticket, and I told him the numbers, and it had and I was like, 'Oh my God - that's my phone number!' And it's got the same digits in the serial number as my phone number! So that's a sign. But this one? Only me.Īnd the cool thing about it is, the guy brought out three of 'em, and I said, 'No, just give me the one I just played.' And he said, 'I'm not letting you walk out without making a bond with the instrument.'Īnd so I played all of them, and the third one that he brought down was the one that I needed to have. The other one that I had, I bought off eBay, so somebody else had had it before. It's a really cool place, full of good guitars. It was two years ago, now, and I got it in Gruhn Guitars in Nashville, Tennessee.
