Ironically the Dumpster Diver also refereed to them as "Barn Finds". This particular guy (I don't recall his user name but he became known as "The Nashville Dumpster Diver") sold quite a few of them until someone yanked his leash and made him stop. These were guitars that had been sawed into pieces and scrapped, dating as far back as the early 1980s. As some of you may remember, about eight or ten years ago a whole slew of Gibson guitars showed up on E Bay.
The auction is over but if anyone is interested I might just happen to know the origin of this "barn find". The first eight track was invented and developed in 1955 by Ross Snyder at Ampex.who sold it it to Les Paul who then invented it. Jack Mullin) found two early binaural stereo tape recorders (magnetic tape was first used about 1943) in a German radio facility and shipped them to the US where he copied and manufactured them, later selling them to Bing Crosby so that Bing could pre-record his radio shows.then one day Bing showed them to his guitar player. in 1939 "Fantasia" was recorded in seven track "surround" sound. It should be noted that in addition to adding applause to Hitler's multitracked, pre-recorded speeches. I once (in a different forum") offered a wager to anyone who could name one "invention" Lester created that was of any importance or lasting influence.that was maybe ten years ago.no one has come up with anything as yet.Lester was a tinkerer who expanded upon and exploited existing technology.before you say "multitrack recording" that was actually Telefunken and the Nazis concurrently with Bell Labs and EMI in the 1930s. McCarty's response (being the gentleman that he was) was only to say "Lester remembers things differently than the rest of us".
Ted McCarty about Lester Polfuss' "claims" about his various "inventions" and how as Lester got older his range of influence (at least how he told it) became greater and greater.Mr. 1935 for the Spanish-tuned version), Lloyd Loar in about 1923 developed an electro-magnetic pickup which he applied to a solid body bass.ģ. While yes, Adolph Rickenbacher, Paul Barth and George Beauchamp deserve the lion's share of credit for the development of the solid body, Spanish-tuned electric guitar c.1931 (c. The crazy cool cats of jazz even adopted the guitar, where the guitar was faced with an old problem. Country and Western music were born on the guitar and took the guitar to national fame on the radio. Les Paul contributed as much to the Les Paul guitar as I did to the Apollo Space program.Ģ. In the 1910s and 20s, the steel string guitar replaced the banjo as the primary instrument of the people’s music folk and blues.
