It was @nelscline's birthday this week (a fellow Capricorn) so I thought I'd celebrate by butchering one of my favorite solos of all time. When I met Nels this summer, he told me that he never imagined that he'd have an iconic guitar solo, that it never crossed is mind that Impossible Germany, which turned out very different from his original vision, would become so important to so many people. All I can say is, I was speechless the first time I heard it, and I still am with every repeat. Thanks, Nels! Other than Artoo, same rig as yesterday: Jazzmaster into my Klon KTR and Strymon Bluesky, to the '65 Bassman head via @sinasoid cables. @lollarpickups, @masterybridge, and @elgtsco strings. #guitar #jazzmaster #fender #masterybridge #guadalupecustomstrings #wilco #impossiblegermany #15secondcover
