Pretty nuts.

Knew this would be about Jerry. He and my dad went to high school together, so I've actually gotten to hang out with him bit over the years. SUCH a nice guy, and yeah he can bend a string.
 
I'm not a big country music fan, but I played in a country band about 10 years ago. Some of those guys absolutely tear it up. As far as guitar playing goes, there's a lot to learn from country players. I remember reading an old Ritchie Blackmore interview, and he was talking about people's reaction when he first came to the USA, basically saying "OMG! You're such a great guitarist!", and he was dumbfounded by it. "I'm great? Haven't you heard the guys in Nashville?"
