I was playing the red Gretsch for the first two albums, and then the third album, just before I did that, 1959, I walked into the Music City store in Hollywood, on Sunset and Vine, and I saw this guitar sitting there, $140 or $150, something like that, a Danelectro [4623 Long Horn six-string bass in bronze-and-white burst]. It caught my eye, the shape's so funny and it looked so cheap and weird and different. I looked it over and realized it had six bass strings on it, so I plugged it into some amp they had there, to see what it was like, and I thought, Hey, maybe somebody who likes my sound has made a whole guitar based around it? You know [laughs]? It was interesting. I thought, These pickups are cheap. They can't possibly have a good sound. But it was only $140 or $150, so I figured I'd just buy it, take it home, and try it out. And I did, and I thought the pickups were great. They had this sharp edge. It was wonderful!
