It's so nice to hear a musician play what's the word I'm searching for?Oh right."Music".
I really love the sound of the guitar and accordion together especially when they double up on the melody lines.It's not a sound you hear very much and it really glitters.
Buddy Merrill is a god on guitar,I believe his amp was a fender vibtone 56 .Back in the day we didnt use peddle much mostly through the amp and using the tone control at ful open and raised picksup usually in the middle selecter position being a three way wiring way back when .Players today seem to need more "floor " Toys to pull a "hot lick"
Most Musicians that worked for Mr. Welk were studied musicians , all read music and were multi instrumental.
hey bobluman, new strats do sound like this. Mine does! $1500.00 and change for a new American deluxe, blend the neck & middle pickups with the 5-way switch plug into a fender blues deluxe & most important: use a compression/sustain pedal (in the loop) & in no time, you're swingin' like Buddy!!!
one of the best I Walk The LIne I have ever heard

No doubt... Incredible tone. Cat could play too. Good technique, tasteful phrasing... good all the way around.
