Leo Fender was heavily influenced by the work of Paul Bigsby in the late 1940s, yet in all of the interviews he did, he never acknowledged it. Today we look at both the influences, and the reasons why Leo did not give the credit that Paul Bigsby deserved for his innovations that filtered into every Fender guitar. To help us, we have an amazing copy of the 1948 Bigsby "Merle Travis" guitar, that clearly spotlights the influence on the Fender Telecaster, Stratocaster, and just about every instrument that Leo designed.Amazon affiliate links:The Bigsby Book by Andy Babuikhttps://amzn.to/4iwxtO6Sixteen Tons, By Merle Travis & Deke Dickersonhttps://amzn.to/4hgE6mC Follow me on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/askzac/To Support the Channel:Patreon https://www.patreon.com/AskZacTip jar: https://paypal.me/AskZacVenmo @AskZac Or check out my store for merch - https://my-store-be0243.creator-spring.com/Support the show
Full Rig Info: https://www.premierguitar.com/videos/rig-rundown/vundabarVisit Grimey's: https://www.grimeys.com/A pair of Fender amps and a custom-built Baranik helped the Boston band's guitarist come back from a broken arm.When Brandon Hagen broke his arm a few years ago, his life changed in an instant. He'd been fronting Boston indie rock outfit Vundabar since 2013, and suddenly, he was unable to do the things he'd built his life around. Recovery came, in part, in the form of a custom guitar prototype built by Mike Baranik of Baranik Guitars. Hagen deconstructed and rehabilitated his relationship to the 6-string on that instrument, an experience that led to Vundabar's sixth LP, Surgery and Pleasure, released on March 7.On tour supporting the record, the band appeared at Grimey's in Nashville for a performance on March 11, and PG's Chris Kies caught up with Hagen to hear about his journey and learn what tools the guitarist has brought on the road. As Hagen tells it, his setup is less about expertise and received wisdom, and more about “intuitive baby mode”—going with what feels and sounds good in the moment.Shop Vundabar's Gear:Ernie Ball Slinky Strings - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/qzZAayFender Hot Rod Deville - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/DynQvnJHS Colour Box - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/MmeQkMKeeley Compressor - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/B0drY9Electro-Harmonix 2020 Tuner - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/jeZz95Electro-Harmonix Pitch Fork - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/EKxEPQElectro-Harmonix Micro POG - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/LX5qZ0Boss Blues Driver - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/55YAvLWay Huge Swollen Pickle - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/e1gqLjMXR Carbon Copy - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/Qyn3X9Boss DD-7 - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/KjDAaxFull Rig Info: https://www.premierguitar.com/videos/rig-rundown/vundabarSubscribe to PG's Channel: http://bit.ly/SubscribePGYouTubeWin Guitar Gear: https://bit.ly/GiveawaysPGDon't Miss a Rundown: http://bit.ly/RIgRundownENLMerch & Magazines: https://shop.premierguitar.comPG's Facebook: https://facebook.com/premierguitarPG's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/premierguitar/PG's Twitter: https://twitter.com/premierguitarPG's Threads: https://threads.net/@premierguitarPG's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@premierguitar0:00 - D'Addario XPND Pedalboard0:15 - Vundabar "I Need You" Live at Grimey's1:06 - Chris Kies Intro1:39 - Brandon Hagen's Custom Baranik B44:56 - Fralin P-90s & Baranik Goldfoil Pickups7:51 - Baranik B4 Controls9:15 - Klon Clone in the Guitar?!13:02 - Brandon Hagen's 2009 Japanese Fender Jazzmaster '62 Reissue15:54 - Recording "I Need You" & Surgery and Pleasure Album22:47 - Relearning Guitar After a Broken Arm24:25 - 2009 Japanese Fender Jazzmaster '62 Reissue Sound Demo26:02 - D'Addario XPND Pedalboard & John Bohlinger26:51 - Brandon Hagen's Fender Fender Pro Junior & Blues Junior31:37 - Brandon Hagen's Pedalboard42:48 - Creating Tones for "Greenland"44:39 - Brandon Hagen's Strings & Tunings49:35 - Vundabar Live at Grimey's[Brought to you by D'Addario: https://ddar.io/wykyk-rr & D'Addario XPND: https://ddari.io/xpnd.rr]© Copyright Gearhead Communications LLC, 2025#guitar #rigrundown #guitarist #guitarplayer #guitargear

A new study led by researchers at Washington State University showed that butterfly populations in the U.S. shrank by more than 20% from 2000 to 2020. More than 100 butterfly species declined by more than 50% during this period, including nearly two dozen that plummeted by more than 90%.The findings are based on more than 12 million observations of hundreds of butterfly species recorded by citizen scientist volunteers and biologists during surveys conducted in the Pacific Northwest and six other regions across the continental U.S. Cheryl Schultz is a professor of conservation biology at Washington State University and a senior author of the study. She joins us to share more details and how the public can help with butterfly conservation – including species like the Fender’s blue butterfly which is native to Willamette Valley and was reclassified from endangered to threatened status in 2023.

Welcome to the most chaotic cinematic therapy session this side of the apocalypse, where four degenerates shout over each other about spin kicks, bad wigs, and jacked robots who don't know what dongs are anymore. This week we're getting emotionally destroyed by a Jean-Claude Van Damme triple feature that roundhouse kicked us so HARD it sent us spiraling into a fever dream so intense it should come with a physician's warning and a complimentary bottle of body oil.
I love Peavey amps from the early-to-mid 1980s, because I grew up with them in my favorite music shop, Clawson's Music in Corpus Christi, TX. In my last 80s Peavey episode, I looked at the Special 130, that is a killer amp, but is heavy, way too loud for most gigs, and at times a bit non-intuitive due to the mid-shift and multiple gain controls. My buddy, Mike LoPinto, who plays with Chris Stapleton, clued me into the Studio Pro 40. It checks all of the boxes, as it is easy to carry, has plenty of volume, a full sound with an Eminence 12 inch speaker, and is pretty cheap at the current going price of $100-$200. For me, it is a great grab and go amp, and the perfect amp to take to the gig as a backup to my Headstrong Lil King, or my Fender 1965 Deluxe Reverb.
