Terrible Ted Nugent 'Guitar Lesson' with Burst Content

[brandtkronholm]

Notice how two of the knobs only have a "T" instead of the entire word "tone".

I wonder why?

T = Ted. Duh.

:salude

Will do! I was actually near there last year. I stopped in at the Superstroke head office since I was so close by just to tell them how much I liked their putter grips.

That IS close!!
I live right around the corner LOL.

I did live closer to Detroit, but the commute was killing me.

Let me know, and I can set something up..you can PM me with details when the time comes.:salude

 

[Anje]

Thanks again TAC!
That Byrdland sure sounds great in his hands :salude

 

[Kris Ford]

hmmmm... I need to talk to some folks. Teds LP would be killer. It is one of the gnarliest. :yah

ONLY if Ted did the carving of his name into them..screw signing the headstock!!:yah

The shape of those knobs does look like Fender amp knobs to me, even if the lettering does not quite match the one(s) I see on my old 64-69 Twins & Deluxes (but there were different styles/batches with subtile differences even between my amps so I could imagine those were again another style).

I don't think I have never seen a mid/late 60's Fender amp knob with lettering. Got a photo? :hmm

As a guy born and raised in Detroit and remembering Ted from his Amboy Dukes days, I thoroughly enjoyed that video. :dude:

Sorry Tom my sentence was not clear, I meant the "numbering" or to be more specific, the look/shape of the font of the numbers engraved on the knobs.
When looking back at some photos I see different font / look of the numbers between my 64 Twin Reverb and later 68/69 Twin Reverb and Deluxe Reverb, both styles still not being exactly the same as the knobs on Ted's LP above.

As a guy born and raised in Detroit and remembering Ted from his Amboy Dukes days, I thoroughly enjoyed that video. :dude:

It was 99% unscripted too.

He he knew in his head what he wanted to talk about, we had an idea of what songs I'd be calling out and I had the idea of him pulling up in his truck but that's it.

Once the camera was running he just started talking and playing.

 

[AlienVintage]

Dreadful.

 

[Doc Sausage]

So, TAC, you played the LP's, have you been for a spin in the Hellcat?

 

[TAC]

Nope. I've not even seen it. It's not been in Michigan when I've been there.

 

[Doc Sausage]

Nope. I've not even seen it. It's not been in Michigan when I've been there.

I might be mixing up my videos. Probably the Texas one I'm thinking of.

 

[Marshall Man]

Awesome TAC!

 

[zorglub!]

TAC, many thanks for the info on Ted's Bursts. Would you happen to know if they still sport their original serial numbers in the back of the headstock?

 

[TAC]

Yep.

And no, I'm not posting them. Lol.

Though I'll say the '59 is a low serial number and the '58 is a mid number for that year.

 

[Fried okra]

Yep.

And no, I'm not posting them. Lol.

Though I'll say the '59 is a low serial number and the '58 is a mid number for that year.

It'd be nice for Julio to post them to the Burst Serial Database. :salude

TAC - FYI:

http://www.burstserial.com/

Zorglub's/Julio's BurstSerial.com is a great resource and most of us here have our guitars on it. :dude: He will also be as discrete as you want him to be.

 

[T.Allen]

Burstserial.com also helps preserve the history and integrity of this era of guitars. It is a good thing! I would encourage Ted to list them.

 

[TAC]

Talking about their specs or pics...no prob. But it's not my place to be giving out the serial numbers.

I saw this video already, but enjoyed watching it again.
Thanks!
