In this episode of Guitar Store Tours, we go to my favorite store in Nashville TN, Carter Vintage Guitars. They always have some amazing guitars in stock, but today I got to play one of the coolest guitars ever, Ed King's 1973 Fender Stratocaster that was used to record Sweet Home Alabama by Lynyrd Skynyrd. This is the Sweet Home Alabama Guitar.

Living in Canada sucks for a left handed person. I want to learn to play electric guitar so bad before my fingers won't allow me to. Where I live in Canada no one has a left handed electric guitar. Sure I can get one ordered in but I will have to wait a year or two for one to come in. I am getting really frustrating and about ready to give up on my dream of playing.

I love Hendrix, Rory Gallagher, the Edge, 70s Clapton, Mike Campbell etc. But I just never feel comfortable playing one. A Les Paul or an SG fits like a glove. My go to single coil guitar is a Tele. It “makes sense” from. Gibson point of view. A Strat feels completely strange by comparison.

Thanks for the posting. Triggered some heavy nostalgia. I knew Ed at the beginning - I was the singer on his first hit Insence & Peppermints. Great guitarist, talent. , guy. I rmember when he showed me how to play My Generation the right way. (And helped me snag Townshend’s shattered guitar neck when the Who opened for the Alarm Clock (!) in 67.) I wouldnt call him shy - just very self contained. (His story of how he got onto Lynrd is not the way of a shy man). We were never close friends but we always stayed in touch. I enjoyed very much seeing his many you tube and snarky facebook postings over the years. Sad day when we lost him. Thanks again.

So glad I watched this vid, because the sign on the guitar informed me about the Strawberry Alarm Clock connection. 🍄🤯 I love SAC! & my first amp was a 120W Peavy Deuce, which later I found was the model used by & created for Lynyrd Skynyrd. I was a beginner and the amp was way over my head but now I could harness it.

Incense and Peppermint's is a great song that also made quite an impression on me growing up and fit so nicely in the psychedelic era, it had a certain kind of "haunting happiness" and you had a very unique voice that was just so perfect for that piece of music you made. It was mind blowing to learn that Ed was also a part of that. Thanks for stopping by and making yourself known here Greg. Thanks also for the memories of Ed and the great music you were such a huge part of that touched my life I'll never forget ✌️

People all make such a big deal about Steve Gaines and no disrespect he was a talented guy but, I personally didn't care for the "Steve Gaines Skynyrd" the music didn't feel the same to me anymore, I will forever be a "Ed King era" Skynyrd fan and thinking about it, of their first 3 albums with Ed I can't really say I love any one more than another. All 3 were equally great albums for me. That hippie kid from Cali really added just the right amount of sweet to the sound and songwriting of those southern boys. They were never the same without him.

The cbs era guitars were not as well made, but if you could get past the imperfections, they still had great tone.

As a Nashville resident, Carter Vintage is by far my favorite guitar shop, and I have visited most all of them. I have been with a couple of friends who went in to trade, buy or just check out amps, guitars, etc. Cool vibe, amazing instruments, and great staff. Walter, or Mr. Carter himself, is a good guy too. A good friend of mine had an opportunity to hang out with Ed and his wife at a local marina, and got to know Ed personally. He said that Ed was very down to earth, and a genuinely nice guy. RIP, Mr. King.

Rhett, One time back in the early 90's Tony Rice, THE Tony Rice actually let me play his guitar for a couple of minutes backstage at one of his shows!!!!!!! He was such a nice guy!! PS After watching the rest of your vid, I have to ad that my old buddy, Steve Grills, back up in Rochester NY played the blues in all the bars with a Trini Lopez that he used to strap like Freddy King, over his right shoulder.

Only thing better than that would be to play it through the same amp Ed King used. You did a great job playing that riff on it under pressure! I would have totally screwed it up being a NYer which means I probably can't play it right anyway! Nice playing Wind Cries Mary on it too! Very cool!👍👍👍

I imagine the reissue Bassman, modded by Alex Dumble, with the $50,000 price tag, is still there on the floor unsold? I haven't made it to Gruhn's at the new location, but when I was there a decade back, and made it to the esteemed 2nd floor, off in the corner was an inconspicuous Magnatone amp. I got closer and saw a Dymo label on it that said "Buddy Holly", along with a $175,000 price tag. Buddy Holly's amp?! Holy crap!

Mark Hammer the whole dumble thing is so stupid. No amp is worth that price tag.

@@zackcoffmanguitar It's worth what someone will pay for it. I will say, Dumble himself finds it kind of stupid what people will pay for them. Much as Bill Finnegan feels about the prices paid for original Klon Centaurs.

Yes, the Bassman is still there, and there is one more Dumble amp too.

Hmm, Strat and Tweed amp. It really does sound fantastic. That riff is one of those riffs that once you know it, it feels so good to play you want to just go on playing it continuously. Thanks for showing us. I really love these guitar store videos, not just because it's interesting to see what they have - but also, your conversations with people are intelligent and interesting in their own right!

Was there last year and hands down it's the coolest guitar store I've been to. I played a 70s tele deluxe in mocha and I fell in love. One day I will pull the trigger on that guitar.

Never mind the riff it's famous for, when you moved into the Hendrix lick that was really beautiful. It's a wonderful tone - nice playing.

The two solos to Sweet Home Alabama are in my top 10 solos of all time. Ed King, totally underrated, and what an original guitarist. Never heard playing like this before, or since.

I would’ve fallen over laughing with pure joy if I played THAT lick on THAT guitar. Just too much to take in. I’ve seen it hanging in the shop several times on visits there and it’s always so cool to see it.

Your tone at the 12:14 mark nailed the Sweet Home Alabama tone (so that was the 2nd position on the toggle switch). I'd love to know what the DC Resistance of each of those pickup reads at (both Ed Kings Strat and John Mayers Strat both have such a great sounding 2nd and 4th position Strat tones, so I'd love to know the pickup resistance reading on both those guitars as I feel the output of each pickup plays a big role in the tone when the pickups are combined. Not sure if it's better to have a hotter middle pickup for those tones or if it's better to have the outside pickups be the hotter output. Anyway thanks for cool video! Love the Trini Lopez guitar too, amazing tone on that guitar as well.
