When he was on Sun Studio's Sessions, had was playing a guitar that was basically a neck bolted to a frying pan and it sounded great. Had jewels glued to it to make it look nice.

That reminded me of a cheap little aluminum fry pan that I had(8") with a broken handle. I also had a 6 string neck and a plywood Strat body. Well I made the Strat-O-Rez soon after.

My tribute to Super Chikan Johnson.
