    I am a Punk/Metal/Hard Rock guy in general... but I totally agree with you. I believe it might be the cleaner guitar tones that require CW players to play with more dexterity and articulation. Also, let's face it, a lot of today's newer Country players grew up listening to Eddie and Angus as well! I've always thought that Clarence White of the Byrds in their Nashville West era is a great player that deserves more recognition.

      Couldn’t agree more on all points! Clarence is a hero of mine for sure. “sweetheart of the Rodeo” is a timeless masterpiece.

      I agree too. Marty Stuart has been playing Clarence’s Tele for years.

      @@thefretfiles I think Guthrie Trapp might be the best I’ve ever heard but I always go back to Don Rich and Pete Anderson.

      @@josephcorcoran8714 Guthrie is amazing yes! And an excellent blues player as well. Don Rich is definitely a favorite of mine.

    Yeah Brent Mason is ridiculous too. When I was a kid even the thought of playing country music really freaked me out.
    I think like you said, the studio guys are soo fucking good I just figured I wasn’t good enough.
    I wanted to ask you if you gave Dwight Yoakam a good hard listen. I remember mentioning Pete Anderson and Eugene Edwards when I commented before.

      Yeah! Pete Anderson has the touch for sure. Dwight is pure Bakersfield and Pete crafted the perfect hooks for those songs.
