Long story short I was in a band years ago and it was a brother and sister plus a drummer. The sister left the band and moved to LA seeking a solo career and called me to try out to take her place since I was in a band with the drummer in another project.

The sister "Meg" gets discovered in LA by some ex "head" of a major label and tells her if she gets a band together he will sign her on the spot.

So it ends up her brother, myself and the drummer moved to LA to be her band. I lived on the floor in the living room of the apt with her and her brother in Silverlake for like a year and push comes to shove it just was not working out..we were not "clicking" as a band so I joined other touring bands, her brother and the drummer went off to other ventures and she ended up working with a producer and getting signed to Atlantic Records a few years later.

Low and behold I found this today on youtube for "Fender Studio Sessions" and she is playing one of her original songs on a Fender Acoustic that looks sweet and sounds sweet as well. The odd thing is in one shot it has a Strat style headstock, on another a Tele style headstock so there is some foolery going on however I know her well and have played with her long enough to know that certainly is her with no special effects...but I can assume at least the music was pre recorded.

Anyhow here is the vid. What do you guys think of that guitar? I am kind of digging the one with the Tele headstock. The Strat headstock is sweet too but the Tele one is so unique it seems like a "must have". I normally am not into acoustics but ended up recently with some odd Dean blue "cutaway" acoustic and now of course after playing around with it want to upgrade and use it for practice and writing.
