Carr Amp & Gibson ES 175 Guitar


Here's an unbeatable combination for the accomplished Jazz guitarist. I spotted this rig recently at a performance at a small club in Carrboro, NC. Man what a gorgeous full sound. The Gibson speaks for itself, but that Carr Rambler is simply awesome! The sound coming from that amp is ethereal (for lack of a better word) and incredibly clean and natural. And in a Jazz environment it has kind of a floating presence. I want one of each. Carr N Guitar!

Neal Young's LincVolt

When it comes to Cars-N-Guitars ...not many Rockers are into cool rides quite like Neal Young. Here he is with the famous LincVolt. A 1960 Lincoln Continental converted to an all electric drive-train. Guess it takes imagination and a whole lot of extra cash to come up with something like this one!

He started his collection in late 1968 with the purchase of 1930's Bentley. Not a bad first car. The Buffalo Springfield royalties must have been pretty decent after all. More on Neal and his guitars later.
