Watch Dix Bruce Perform “Faded Love” on a 1974 S.L. Mossman Flint Hills Special

Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys turned an old ballad called “Darling Nelly Gray” into the country sensation “Faded Love.” Patsy Cline, Willie Nelson, and Ray Price each had top-ten singles with it, and countless others have recorded it. Here, Dix Bruce goes back to the tune’s instrumental roots with a set of variations played on a 1974 S. L. Mossman Flint Hills Special, one of 27 instruments offered in the Acoustic Guitar Auction that begins May 13, 2021.
