If you go up to most people on the planet and ask who was a better guitar player and you held up 3 pictures, one of Hendrix, on of Page, and then one of Jerry Reed, most people would quickly point at Page and Hendrix. They would then laugh at you and ask you, "Why do you have a picture of Burt Reynolds pal in there?" They would think you were confused or something. Reality is, Reed pisses all over Hendrix and Page when it came to technique.

I will be very honest. I have followed guitar players for 40 years. I knew about Roy Clark, Chet Atkins (obvious) Glenn Campbell, even Clarence White (Byrds) I did not know Jerry Reed was a guitar player, I knew he was a country singer who made movies. Wow this is a great discovery.

I'm in awe of a lot of great guitarists, but if I could play like only one of them, it would be Jerry Reed. That might not make sense to some people, but that's just the way I feel about it.

I have followed guitar players for about 30 years and I did not know that either. Damn am I stupid ! Jerry Reed is a brilliant guitar player first, Snowman second.

Agree with Nikitran that Jerry Reed was the total bad-ass of them all on guitar. And he did it mostly on nylon string! RIP
WOW!!!
