That's a great video! Glad David contacted you and got that arranged. :dude:
A little Jimmy Page vibe.....
Joe plays Ernie Ball 11s on Les Pauls. At the shows I've attended with a guest burst, Mike Hickey (Joe's tech) restrings the guitar. If the tailpiece is pristine (i.e. no signs of ever being top wrapped), then it gets strung the conventional way to keep the tailpiece unmarred. If it has evidence of having been top wrapped, then it gets top wrapped for the show unless the owner objects. I haven't seen Mike adjust the intonation.
:salude
Here's the 58 from the Nashville collector. It's a wonderful guitar. Sounded killer!
