Mr. 335 Larry Carlton playing a 1962 Gibson ES-335 at Norman's Rare Guitars

Музыка

A perfect #wednESday with Mr. 335 Larry Carlton. Larry came in with his cousin Steve and our good friend Jim Hodson. Larry is currently living in Nashville, and he's in LA visiting friends and family. We honored to have Larry come into #NormansRareGuitars to talk a little bit about his career, play a little bit for us, and shoot the sh"t! Larry is playing a 1962 Gibson ES-335 with a stop tail piece and PAFs, what do you guys think?

    To think that we almost lost Larry in 1988 to a crazed gunman outside of his home studio, "Room 335". Thank God he survived and is still playing beautifully over 30 years after that awful day. Larry, we still love you; thanks for sharing your great talent and soul. The world is a much better place with you in it!

    I too have noticed, Rick Beato did an interview with Mr. Carlton, you can watch it for yourself. We all get old (myself included), hands don't work the same way they did decades ago. It's been said "Getting old is painful and expensive, but still better than the alternative". I can't say enough good things about Mr. Carlton that haven't already been spoken/written, he truly is a gift to us all. Myself, I consider Larry Carlton the Guitar Players Guitarist. May we be Blessed with his music and inspiration for many, many years to come.

    Mr. Carlton is an American Treasure ... and so humble. I had the pleasure of seeing him live at the Roxy, here in LA, when he came out with Strikes Twice. I bought his first few albums. The solo and fills on Kid Charlemagne are just the tip of the iceberg regarding what Mr. Carlton can do.
