Doyle Bramhall II, he is a MONSTER player and has played his 535 for 12-15 years with Clapton.

Yes he is a great player. Started in 2000 with Clapton in the studio. I think he's produced for him also.

Bramhall II is as talented a writer/singer/player as anybody working right now.  Anybody!  His 2016 long player, Rich Man, is staggeringly good!  Its music goes from Mali to Memphis, and back again.  As good a record as I've heard in the last thirty years and in my top five, ever.  He was touring a reformed Arc Angels with Chris Layton and Charlie Sexton earlier this year.  And DB, it's not strung "upside down."  Bramhall plays left-handed, but with it strung right-handed, as did Albert King, Elizabeth Cotten, Dick Dale, Eric Gales, and Otis Rush.  Note also the dot on the selector switch, suggesting HRW p'ups.

I saw Doyle and the original Arcangels at the State theater in Kalamazoo back a long time ago. He's a great player and singer, i've got a couple of his CD's
