Guitar Shorty

Jeff Floro's All About Guitar

I am proud to have Guitar Shorty on the show! A legendary blues rock guitarist, Guitar Shorty was a big influence on Jimi Hendrix. Shorty was the first person Hendrix saw use a wah pedal. Shorty let Jimi borrow his wah and the rest is history. We talk to Guitar Shorty about his playing with such legends as Ray Charles, T-Bone Walker, Big Joe Turner, Little Richard and Sam Cooke, among others. Joining me as guest host is Cathy Lauer, of ToneZone LA and guitarist of Systyr Skin-nerd. Cathy built Shorty's pedal board and we take a look at that too!! It's a night of legendary tone, technique and gear!!
