The Chetboard

I have been amazed recently by some Jerry Reed videos that I am just now discovering on the internet. This one will really put a grin on your face.

Thanks for posting, Tom. Does anyone know what guitar he is playing in this clip?

That's a great one Tom.. I also like Jerry's "The Bird", but I like all of his songs.. Thanks for posting this one. The quality is really good. Ron

Steve was asking about the guitar. I'm not sure what it is, but it looks like the same one that Jerry is playing in this clip of Wabash Cannonball, so it must have been around the same time period. I would guess it might even be his Harmony before he got it chopped Ron

Steve and Ron, Jerry is playing his infamous Baldwin 801CP classical with a Prismatone pickup on this clip. It was probably before he let it 'chopped', but Jerry had several Baldwins. I can't see the clip of Wabash Cannonball, but if it's the one from the mid sixties (where he's also playing Guitar Man), then he is playing a Gibson C1-E with a ceramic pickup. He recorded his album Nashville Underground almost entirely on this guitar.

Awesome! What in the world was he sitting on??? Had to be 4 feet off the ground...
