The Tommy Tedesco estate auction ...

Good Lord! An inconceivable treasure-trove of Tedesco! What if you could OWN the 12-string that he played the "Bonanza" theme on...or the Tele on the "Twilight Zone"...jeez!

Lots of gear! I like the Gibson Es-150 and the old Ampeg r12r reverberocket. I have two of them. They are great for old school Jazz and Get gritty when they are cranked.

Wow!

Is that THE guitar? The one he played his entire life!

Has anyone read any of Tommy's books? I knew about Tommy my whole playing life, but watching "The Wrecking Crew" was eye-opening!!! I wonder if his books are similar at all? Would love to read more session stories.

On a related note- I just read Steve Lukather's book, and as he was part of the "Wrecking Crew 2" (for lack of a better description), he also had a lot of great stories about studios, sessions, records.... in case anyone was interested....
