You're absolutely right. Don't know why I didn't notice that before. I see it plain as day now. Thanks for pointing it out. I'd love to play one of those sometime.
James, please play some local LA shows soon and make sure to announce them on TDPRI. I'd love to buy a hard copy of El Dorado from you too, since they start at $250 on Amazon!
The guitar has a "bender" built into the back of the body. Watch the guitar strap button starting around 1:20 and you'll see it moves up and down like a lever as he pushes the guitar away from his body. It mechanically bends a string, usually the B or G string. The round button behind the bridge is also a giveaway. Sounds great in his hands, for sure!
Best telecaster pickn' on youtube. totally sublime.

Nice. Looks like he's doing some minor whammy pedal work as well to get those nice 'personality' bends.

So smooth it makes me want to take some time capsules!

JC is great on the telecaster, all those cool bends and those chord tones, so layered and complex, this music creates a world of it's own.
thanks JC!
