Distorted Guitars: the c&w invention that ended up as rock's own hallmark

Distorted Guitars:  the c&w invention that ended up as rock's own hallmark

LA session guitarist Orville 'Red' Rhodes was well aware of Grady Martin's productive mishap on Marty Robbins Nashville session 'Don't worry'. Rhodes tried out simpler ways of 'un-equallizing' pre-amps, and ended 60/61up with compact 'fuzztone' gadget- later marketed by Maestro Inc.
Am not aware if Rhodes did use box in own session work at that time, but he is quoted as lending it out to guitar instro group Ventures in late 61. And DID they use it on their ' 2000 Pound Bee'...

Distorted Bass...McCartney following Grady Martin's trail

By early 65 UK Vox Ltd was marketing their own fuzztone/ fuzzbox. Said to be used by McCartney on George Harrison's "Think for yourself" (Rubber Soul sessions), I very much assume Vox box here being 'cuted by Paul on 6-stringed bass. If so be, McCartney is precisely following Grady Martin's footsteps from ' Don't worry' session.
