Before I start blabbin here's a clip:

What has been impressing me lately is how closely related the tonal aspects of the guitar are to the organ. Nothing illustrates this more vividly than the format of the organ trio. But to fully come to this realization one must eliminate the organ from the equation. Once this is done it leaves the guitarist in a dual role. Now the guitarist is left to function both as front man and accompanist. The sound of the occassional thump of a comp chord then becomes very characteristic of the missing organ.
Enjoy!
