Someone needs to buy this unique treasure and rock out on it!!ĭwight Yoakam's combination of Bakersfield country and Mersey Beat pop brought rockers to country and honky tonk to pop music with smash hits like 'Guitars, Cadillacs,' 'Fast As You,' 'Little Sister,' and 'Turn It On, Turn It Up, Turn Me Loose.'ĭwight broke out of the incredible Los Angeles country punk scene in the early 80s with a dash of Buck Owens, a dash of Beatles, and a whole new attitude that shook up country and rock and roll. To be honest, I could never get to grips with the reverse headstock, so I put it to one side and forgot about it. although I had all this work done, I NEVER played it live, and only played it in the studio maybe twice. Some people are gonna hate that I had this finished in black, but get over it, I think it looks awesome.Ĭrazy thing is.
I'm not sure if I kept the original pickguard (I'm sure I have it somewhere, and promise I will search for it!) The original truss rod cover is included, as is the case, and certificate of authentication signed by Dwight himself!! He also added the gold glitter binding, and the custom pickguard. I had this custom finished for me around 2014 by Shelly Ferrell of Nashville Fretworks. So not only is this a limited edition geetar, (as far as I know, only 500 were made - 250 red, 250 white), this is (to my knowledge) THE ONLY black one!! Elitist Dwight Yoakam 'Dwight Trash' Casino Outfit!
