So I went straight to the horses mouth, here is a partial interview with Larry Cragg , He has been working as Neils Guitar Tech since 1976.Larry Cragg began working with Neil and on Neils guitars in 1972 and has toured as his tech since 1976. Larry has played banjo, pedal steel and sax for Neil and he's doubled on keyboards and guitars in Nils Lofgrens band since 1985."Neil has played that black Les Paul since before I started working with him. He calls it Old Black, but its a 1953 gold top that used to have a trapeze bridge. Years ago he lost the bridge pickup for it, so they put in a Dearmond adjustable-pole pickup, like on an early Gretsch. He had that for about two years, and then he had me put in the chrome Firebird pickup thats been on there ever since. Its gotten beat up over the years and its very microphonic. You can talk into it, and it comes out just like a cheap microphone. it makes a lot of squeals. That Les Paul has had a Bigsby since I've been working for him."Larry Cragg If you would like to hear what this guitar sounds like go to :http://www.myspace.com/thejoeyschuylerband there are 3 Neil Young Songs I did with the previous project.
