1960s Del Vecchio Dinamico

Description

One of the most famous players of the Del Vecchio Dinâmico resonator guitar was country musician Chet Atkins. Atkins was initially introduced to the instrument by the music of Nato Lima of Los Indios Tabajaras.
On his 1965 RCA Victor album
My Favorite Guitars
, Chet Atkins refers to his Dinamico as his “Los Indios Tabajaras” guitar and says that “the lead guitarist…sent his [to Atkins] and got himself another like it in his native land, where they are readily available.” Tracks on the album, where Atkins uses the Dynamico, are
Josephine
and
Moon of Manakoora
.
Chet Atkins is credited with playing a Del Vecchio lead guitar on the tune “Turn Around” on Nanci Griffith’s
Other Voices, Other Rooms
. Earl Klugh, a protégé of Chet Atkins, received a Dinâmico from Atkins.
This model has survived the ages and remarkably plays great and has a very unique voice. W/HSC
