Curtis Mayfield — Rig Network

Mayfield's primary electric guitar — a Stratocaster with the characteristic open-tuning setup. The single-coil bridge pickup through a clean amp produces the shimmering, glassy quality of his distinctive chord voicings.

Used for some Impressions recordings and live work — the semi-hollow construction adds warmth and acoustic resonance to the clean chord playing.
