“What kind of guitar ran $99 bucks in 1966?”
A cheap one. Guitar prices have come way down in price and up in quality since then. (They started importing them)
So Arkansas Bill plays the the sax, and Arkansas Huck plays the bass. Need I say more?
I can't believe I am saying this but in all fairness to Clinton it takes a lot more practice to learn to play rudimentary saxophone than it does rudimentary bass.
Danelectro was less than $99 in 1966
