All these great songs kept coming up on the radio with blazing guitar solos that had a certain clarity and bite I had never noticed before. After research the songs a little bit, a clear pattern began to emerge. They players were all using Telecasters!
When I finally learned that Jimmy Paige used a Telecaster for the solo in Stairway to Heaven, and Joe Walsh cut his Hotel California tracks on a Tele, I was all in!
Nothing else like it!
