Now, what do you all think?


Andrea,
One of those inspiration thoughts, but I think you're interpreting BB too literally. Or if he meant it literally....sorry BB not literally true. Some instruments do sound better than others, however a great musician can make even a crappy instrument sound good. The overall BB sound comes from within, but the actually physical sound of an instrument is a combo of the musician & instrument quality of both. I don't care how good Willie Nelson plays, his ratty old Martin sounds like crap straight up.
