Les Paul ES.

it looks too thin for an LP.
the lack of f holes and tailpiece are confusing me.

There are f holes on that guitar. They're just mostly obscured by his forearm (upper f hole) and his knee and the pickguard (lower).

you've never heard junior kimbrough? not surprising.

dude is a master. i had a mississippi fred mcdowell station on pandora (when it first came out), and they kept playing this guy junior kimbrough. i hooked up with a jk station, and then they started playing this band called "the black keys."

and then i got this thing called a mustang. i would give my left nut to see junior live. he died like 12 years ago. RIP

If you were talking to me you fail, of course I've heard of him and his music. I also prefer both Mississippi Fred Mcdowell and R.L. Burnside to him, he's ok IMO.

why the hell would i have been talking to you? did you say anything that would lead anyone to believe you weren't as versed as you are?

i was talking to rob. you mentioned he was dead. i thought it was quite clear who i was talking to. i hadn't even seen your post when i typed mine.

<3 rlb, mfd, and jk. also sunnyland slim, and CLAPTON LOL

DUDE, THIS JR GUY IS AWESOME.

I was just jamming on "I gotta try you girl" with the youtube vid. This guy is amazing - like a less corny "Electric Mud".

meet me in the city and have mercy on me are his favorites of mine.

try to find: 'you better run - the essential junior kimbrough.'

fucking awesome. i have a vinyl RI, really great tunes.

Don't think I've heard of him. Must try to find some of his stuff.

I've been listening to the Super Super Blues Band a lot recently. As far as bluesy guitar goes, I've sort of found no need to look anywhere else since I got that.
