Just a great photo I came across on the Steel Guitar Forum of a working band from the 50's. Legendary steel player, Buddy Emmons, is on the right. You can see his Bigsby pedal steel guitar was too short for his long legs so he propped his right knee out. Looks kinda uncomfortable, huh? Great looking band in their country duds! Looks to be a Martin D-18? D-28? on the left obscuring a fella playing a who-knows-what kind of archtop. Early Gibson Les Paul in the middle and a Gretsch Duo Jet equipped with a Bigsby vibrato arm on the right. Looks like all three of those electric guitars are being played through the tweed Fender Twin amp!
