The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for July 04, 2024

But this is proof that Franklin invented the Stratuscaster, not Fender.

FREEBIRD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He’ll have to get rid of the hum!

shock rock! Is that where AC/DC got the idea for “Thunderstruck”?

I think Young Einstein did it.

Les Paul Franklin

I wonder if he knows how to play Franklin’s Tower?

Stick with the glass armonica, Frankie.

Looks like he found his Stairway to Heaven.

Killer Feedback Dude !

The invention of Shock Rock.

Knocked his bifocals off.

That’s what you get for trying to play in the key of Bb

funny

Benny and the Frets

It was at this point that Ben (Shred) Franklin switched to playing cowbell.

LOL!!

It was Ben Franklin, not Alice Cooper, who was the original Shock Rocker.

Wow, best laugh of the day! Not sure why, but it’s a great fresh riff on the old Franklin experiment which has seen many less entertaining spoofs.

You can’t turn it up to 11 right off the bat.

kinda like Marty, only different!

Les Paul he ain’t.

HIGH VOLTAGE!

If he had his ground rod properly installed it might have worked…At least it wouldn’t be shockingly badly riffed.

They all need to be grounded, deep in the ground … which I scream at the Les Paul sign every time I drive into Waukesha, WI.

Thunder Bolt of Lightening! Very Very Frightening!

Mama Mia Figaro!

Looks like Ben Franklin Unplugged.

I’m shocked, shocked! (no wait) You’re shocked, shocked!

What key what’s he playing in? Electricikey?

“Lightning is striking, agaaiiin….”

How long has it, Ben?

Well, he couldn’t invent everything

What did Benjamin Franklin say when he discovered electricity? Nothing, he was too shocked!

Not until Yahoo Serious came along
