This was recorded with a 1971 Epiphone 6830E I recently restored to playing condition. I like the old-timey sound it gives the video. There are two literary allusions in the song. The film images are from the Prelinger Archives.

@CharmedQuarkZ99 I took the neck off, put a shim in to fix the neck geometry, then put in a bone saddle to replace the plastic one, and sanded it down to a comfortable playing level.

I looked it up. A good set-up will do wonders, it sounds great.

@CharmedQuarkZ99 This is an old one, the 6830E, very pretty and easy to play.

Very cool song & video Ron!! Love this footage & the song sounds like it came straight from the dusty vaults of 1930s....

@asktunes Thank you, Angel. I was going for that old-timey sound.

Great video production. Helps tell the story very well. Nicely done. Looks like you've done this a couple times. This song tells a great story, that just happens to be coming around full circle again. Great job.
