As the thread creeps...........Marty Robbins had a veritable boatload of wee-tiny bodied guitars. Every performance seemed like he had a different one. In his earlier years he had played some of the big fancy electrics which were all the thing in Nashville for awhile and I also saw some clips with a D Martin. But when he went to the dwarf things he had a ton of them. Typical of Nashville stars to have a lot of guitars in those years especially....but to finally get to the question........What others do you remember and why did he go to the little jobs? The way he held them? Was that "staging" or could he hear somehow better or what?
Just curious.
