I first saw John play in 1994 with the Hellecasters in Nashville, with Brad Paisley in tow. Brad was 21, and I was 20 with a fake I.D. Paisley told me as we got to the door, "If you don't get in, I'm going in without you." Many years later, I had the chance to interview Jorgenson for the Truetone Lounge, and then he kept being mentioned in my "Ask Zac" show, so I finally decided to dedicate a show to his huge influence in making Vox amps, 6-string basses, electric 12-string guitars, and bold effects popular in Country Music. He is also is a huge reason that Matchless amps ever got off the ground.Special thanks to Willem van der Wagen, who runs the Desert Rose Band fan website, and YouTube page.Jorgenson playlisthttps://open.spotify.com/playlist/6iR...Additional photos of John, including some with a prototype Matchless amphttps://www.askzac.com/post/john-jorg...Gear for this video1957 Fender Esquire with added Ron Ellis "New Tall" neck pickup.
