Just picked it up...an import version of the Gretsch Bo Diddley Guitar...red...been at the Gretsch dealer so long that the pots are all scratchy. Three way switch clicks really loud when you use it.
UD, I have a long leather coat, gonna buy a "pork pie" hat tomorrow and have my photo taken on that old Cushman scooter with this "plank" strapped across by back. Think of me as the "Albino Bo"!
What's not to like about a guy who wrote and recorded 6 one chord hit songs (key of E) about his "you know what", and one top seller on marackas?
Of course, there's the "mini-Diddley", and that might have been more appropriate, but a guy can dream, can't he?
Later...gotta go rehearse...dum te dum te dum...Dum Dum! Gotta get ready for the "Bo" tribute show! Big number is a "Bo" version of Rocky Top...perfect for this market!
