    Our band moved to Austin in 1985 - looking for a guitar player - and immediately pegged David as THE guy. Sadly for us, he was already on the train and pulling out of the station when we were still trying to buy tickets. David is such a talented and musical guy. This is one of the best interviews I've ever heard. What a story.

    Ha! @1:29:04 David Grissom drops a pick and immediately finds it. This never happens to the rest of us. When we drop a pick, it goes into a different dimension of the time/space continuum. All kidding aside, great interview and being in tune makes me feel good also!

      Totally, changed my life when I bought that cassette. Then I moved to Austin from Ny in '93. I actually met Joe Ely and ended up having breakfast at his house with a bunch of people and some Tibetan Monks. It's a long story.....anyway David's tone and playing on Live at Liberty Lunch are as iconic for me as Clapton with Cream at the Filmore!!!

      @@TruetoneFX I have been for years trying to copy that tone, but I have not succeeded. David has that edge on the sound, with a little distortion, but there is a lot of clarity on the notes. I generally get too muddy because I want to get a bit of sustain on the sound. When I clean up, I lose that edge and sustain.

    When I heard David for the first time on the album with Get a leg up on it a tone bulb just shattered my brain. I loved Billy Gibbons, Malcolm Young, and was Really into EVH, Steve Vai with DLR. Reb Beach, the Guys from Tesla, Keoch and Hannon. Then I heard Grissom and it was like, this dude has it just right. Nice crunchy tone with just the right amount of thickness, yet not as saturated as the more open then the more metal guys. When he did those sweet Hendrixy neck things I was just drawn in. If I can ever get my single income family budget to afford a core instrument it will be the DGT. I've bastardized a few SE's to his wiring, and discovered the Duncan screamin demon (covered) is a real close cousin to his bridge pickup, it will be nice to have the real deal. Great episode!

    David Grissom is a guitar player everyone should know but unfortunately don't. Hopefully this will get his name out there even more.

    Great interview. History, technique, personalities, places, equipment, conceptual approaches...everything. My gateway to Grissom was his work with James McMurtry, who I got into from his father Larry McMurtry who is a fine novelist. Good songwriters tend to read a lot of fiction, whether it's comic books, bestsellers, or the classics. All the band leaders Grissom worked with weave compelling narratives that verge on mythology. I'm looking forward to more solo recordings from the master of Americana, David Grissom.

    It was a klon, a TC chorus, and a volume pedal into 2 50watt marshall plexi's and a Trace Elliott 4x12 and a PRS.

    Im towards the end now. Heard the line about inducting Guy Clark into Austin’s HOF. I know a true musician when they know Guy Clark.
    I went and saw Rodney Crowell in Rocky Mount, Virginia at the Harvester theater. I was third row. At one point Rodney went on about “she’s crazy for leaving” and said he wrote the song with Guy Clark. The he said “Who is probably the best songwriter, ever!” Well, though I agree with him, one guy in the crowd didnt! Not for disliking Guy, but because he thought Rodney Crowell was the best. And he yelled “NO, YOURE THE BEST!” Rodney was so put a-back he paused and said, “You sound very assertive, so I wont disagree with you.”
    At the end of the show he closed with Poncho and Lefty. A version so powerful it brought me to tears! Love your stories, hope mine made you smile!

    This is a real Master Class from both sides of the coin.....David shares so much great info - a deep dive into so many things of great benefit to almost any player. But, Zac really knows how to make feel people feel comfortable with an easy-going conversational style that draws in his guest and the viewer. This is really a top-shelf session well worth your time. So much excellent information that you can put to use right away. Great stuff.....

    David Grissom is such a goofball! So full of himself, and I have lived in Texas my entire life and I don't have near the fake accent that he does.. but dammit, thank God for his attention to detail and his craft. The best artists are always edgy, and Grissom lives on the edge. What an absolute innovator and force.

      We disagree. He was very kind and considerate.

      @@TruetoneFX I just re-watched the video, and realize that he is from Kentucky, not Indiana which I mistakenly thought, hence the accent. I am just saying he seems like a nut, his attention to detail, Etc. He definitely seems like a gentleman, I will be purchasing a dgt because of him and partly this show, thanks

    What a great father. $275 for a 52 Paul. Dad was a gem.
