Dickey would have loved to had a looper in the earlier days. I saw the ABB many times in my life and several incarnations of gutair pickers who accompaned Dickey. Fir a few years he played both his and Duanes parts. He was a driving player. He had it. The comments of many altjpugh he played note for note lead to a lot of his issues in life. He had the confidence but the lack of respect from the audience and several writers really hurt him. I saw him first hand. The man was a guitar genious. He did and did it every night. He paid a heavy price. A lot was performed with his Les Paul's. Later with Stratacaster. Dickey Betts always had my respect. Yeah, he played the tough guy, at times somebody had to. Seems there was always someone or situation trying to eat him alive. I'm glad his performances luve on through his son. Another fine picker.

RIP Dickie Betts. I didnt get into them until probably my late 30's? I immediately wondered why they were considered Southern Rock? Skynrd, .38 Special, the Outlaws, and Molly Hatchet are Southern Rock to me NOT ABB. There is blues and jazz mixed in their music that none of the aforementioned bands had. And one if not the main reason for that is Dickie and the scales that you mentioned Michael. Truly stood out in a crowd of guitar players

Cool thing about those early 80’s SG’s is the output jack is on the side👍

@cuda426hemi Ай бұрын

I'd still have my Epi crystal snowflake white SG Muse with jack on side - the neck carve was sweet, push pull pots sounded great, but that damn laurel fretboard - ultimately the ONLY reason I sold it. Kind of went overboard replacing it though with a Gibson Iommi Monkey and $170 Epi SG w/Kill Pot to protect it, LOL !!! 👀

1980 Standards had bound necks and the block inlays - what's goin' on here? 👀

@joermnyc Ай бұрын

Yeah, and not in blue. Unless this was someone’s custom order… or some really modified a “The SG” Deluxe since that did have an ebony fingerboard with dots.

@cuda426hemi Ай бұрын

@@joermnyc I think this is one of the "Firebrand" SGs of 1980 - not mahogany/rosewood but walnut/walnut/ebony with "The SG" neck pickup and a Velvet Brick at the bridge - coils exposed but as he said the pups are swapped out. Didn't come in blue so someone rattle canned it or was special order. The headstock logo on Firebrand SGs and LPs was dark, too so who knows....But we do know this ain't a regular SG Standard of 1980 but it was called SG Standard naturally. 👀

Dickey…. Dickey was a friend of mine! I met him in 1968 when I was 15. His son Duane is a friend of mine!

@Relayer6a Ай бұрын

That guitar has the LP neck pickup placement. Most of them have the pickup further from the neck, which I don't think sounds as good. Unusual Ebony fret board, non bound neck, and dot inlays. I've never seen a 1980 SG standard appointed like that. I think the Firebrand and Artist both came that way.

Hey Mike, I never had much of a desire to play SG’s however in 2009 I played one in Red that of all things had a nice Ebony Fingerboard. I too, could have played it all day. Something about that pairing has mojo, IMO 😊. You really sounded good today. Saw Allman Bros @ Filmore West either in 95or96. They could bring it

I think it’s a variation of a “The SG” or Firebrand. They started to add color to these in the 80’s.
