"Bought this guitar for the recording of my album, Mississippi Mile. The album was dense with incredible players and I needed something that would fit the mix and blend well while still having a voice. This guitar was perfect. And it reminded me a bit of the Mississippi John Hurt guitar I own." - John Oates
