When you hear him play on Bowie’s recordings it all makes sense ,he is just a solid rock and roll guitarist ,and when you think that Bowie could had the pick of any guitarist he used earl slick for over thirty years ,

Mr. Slick, Your playing on the Bowie Live at the BBC concert just never stops knocking me out. I must have played that recording a thousand times. Crushed at David's passing. Thanks for being a beautiful part of the recordings of two of my greatest musical heroes - both gone but thanks to recordings, with us forever.

Jaw-dropping performance from him and the whole band! It blows my mind every time! I was hoping to see the peavey telecaster he used on that concert here.

The key to being one of the greats is the ability to write the riffs. Any good guitarist can imitate what others have written. But writing the riff is the beginning and what makes Earl Slick one of the greatest rock guitarists that ever lived.

The SG Chinese symbols - the neck pos means love and the tailpiece one means life or long life (its also a special word put on display at homes/parties to celebrate a special birthday like a 60th or 80th). The two symbols have no special meaning used together. Very nice and apt for the guitar!
