BTW, James Taylor describes Dave as "my favorite guitar player." Taylor sets up his Olsons really well too.
That is awesome! When I play acoustic, I do a lot of open tuning stuff... the modifications that he did on that guitar are awesome. I love the logic and purpose. Just wish I could have heard him use it more!
