Do you remember what fuzz pedal you installed in the guitar? I really loved his early seventies clean to fuzz. The fuzz and tremolo arm work is so sweet!
Thanks ,
Rick P

While I worked at a recording studio there, Copper State Recoding. I am not a musician, but loved what Link could do with his guitars. I even talked him into letting put the electronics for his fuzz box in the body of one of his guitars. He had names for them that I don’t remember now but I think it was red. Even went with them to LA to do a tour but from what I was told Polydor Records wanted Link to sign his life away for the tour to go on. So Link told them where to put it. I went back to Tucson and mixed an album for his brother Vernon before moving on. Those were the days…….
