    Default Dolly Parton "Crackerjack"

    Who knew Dolly was such a good finger picker? I always knew she was a great singer and performer, but now I'm even more in awe. As a kid, I only paid attention to her most famous asset.

    I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009

    I've always been a Dolly fan. Could never figure out how she played so well with those nails - man! I think she uses a lot of open tunings. She is also a prolific songwriter. I saw an interview once where she admitted that she makes more off her songwriting royalties than off her album sales. Pretty shrewd business lady.

    Lots of good footage on Youtube, especially some older footage.

    I wonder what she really looks like

    Acoustics:Washburn D10CEQSB, Yamaha FG160E
    Bass: Westone Spectrum ST, Warwick Rockbass Corvette Basic Active
    Amps: Vox NT15H/V112NT Night Train, Peavey Bandit 112, Hartke HyDrive 210C Bass Amp, Vox DA5
