Very cool. I like Brad. Seems to be one of music's good guys. Seems very humble and down to earth. I didn't get a chance to watch the show. Was the beginning some kind of Alabama reunion?

I just watched the performance and the guitar sounds incredible especially with chops like Brad has, but that lead lick is driving me crazy as it is very similar to an old song that has not come to me yet.
Dudley did a killer job on that finish as the gray paisley has a snake skin type look to it which is wicked cool, lets face it only James Burton can pull off pink, which when it was given to him he did not want to use as he thought Elvis would get mad as if he was being to flashy but Elvis loved it, and every paisley Tele is automatically associated with Burton. I think Brad really had to flip over this ax and I would not be surprised if he is not seen with a few different ones in the future as this was the first paisley guitar I ever saw where James Burton did not pop into my head. Reading so many tragic stories about the floods and all the classic lost gear was simply brutal but the real tragedy were the people who lost their lives and homes, material pleasures can be replaced. Country music and Nashville are a very tight community and the only music industry that still operates as strong as ever without Hip-Hop denting the way they do things and still have their big artist ,concerts and record sales. Out of the tragedy of the floods I also believe a lot of players got to checkout gear they never would have before as those guys have been set in there ways for 50 years, and by the looks of things as this is by far not the first time I have seen EB instruments being played in country since the floods EBMM guitars may just find a bigger niche and with Paisley being one of the biggest guns I am sure a lot of pickers want to know what he was playing.

We always have had a pretty good following from country...Brad has had our guitars for at least ten years.

You know Mike, the biggest band in country music have played MM’s for a while now. Rascal Flatts
I won’t post the video cause its off topic but look up “I melt”. A pretty steamy video where the guys play their custom MM’s.
