For version performed by Stephen Bennett

Stephen Bennett

Solo National Steel, modified open G tuning, with the 6th string at F.

In 1980, I was working in a store in Williamsburg, VA. The manager came in one day with an old metal guitar
to use as part of a display. He'd found it sitting in an apartment he'd moved into in Atlanta in 1968 and
although he didn't play, he'd hung on to it. I immediately took an interest in the guitar and he gave it
to me, refusing payment. It'd be interesting to know what the circumstances were that caused it to be
abandoned in the first place. I'm sure they were probably unhappy - and I feel for whatever poor soul lost
it. On the other hand, I'm glad the guitar eventually made its way to me. Thank you, Neal Hahn!
