Porter actually owns three different brands’ versions of this guitar, casually known to guitarists as “the Jimmy Reed guitar.” “I have this Silvertone one,” he explains, “then also a Kay and an Orpheum. They are all the same, except my other two are blonde. They have necks like a baseball bat and this one has the pickguard with the coat of arms.” Porter used this guitar on Taj Mahal’s “Señor Blues.”
