One of my favourite players Roy.

A prime example of pick blocking. There are are many pick blockers who can play at supersonic speed, but players like Tommy White, Mike G Smith, Doug Jernigan and the late Buddy Emmons who could and can play extremely rapidly, but don't exclusively pick block. The big thing for me from this video is that I've been thinking for a while about putting interchangeable 705 pickups in my MSA. I have them in my Emmons and they sound great. Time to get my wallet out I guess. :lol:
Show Pro D10 (amber) 8 + 6, MSA Signature XL D10 (redburst) 9 + 6, Sho~Bud D10 (sunburst) Pro 111 8 + 6, Emmons D10 Push Pull - (black) 8+5, Zumsteel D10 (blue) 8 + 8, Hudson pedal resonator, 10 string lap steel. Telonics, Peavey & Webb amps,
