Charlie Sexton and his Collings SoCo Deluxe

In this video, our good friend Charlie Sexton took some time out of his European tour schedule with Bob Dylan to sit and chat about his relationship with Collings and his current SoCo Deluxe model.

Charlie reflects on how he first met Bill Collings via custom and modified cars. By the time they got to talking electric guitars, he was already gravitating towards the SoCo Deluxe.

As he explains in the video, Charlie has three SoCo models. This one has Doghair back, sides and neck and a solid black top. It features in over 50 per cent of the current Bob Dylan live show alongside some of his other classic and vintage guitars. ThroBak pickups and 10-52-gauge strings complete the picture.

Big thanks to Charlie for taking time to share his thoughts and insights!

For those of you who’d like to know, he’s plugged into Two-Rock Studio Pro 35 and Hamstead Artist 20 amps for the playing parts, using a Klon Centaur, Xotic EP Boost and Analogman ARDX 20 delay in various sections. Charlie’s own gear was on stage with Bob Dylan of course!
