I was shooting Bruce for the day in Malibu at the Warner Bros. ranch up in the hills.  We were doing a number of locations, and some of the shots involved him with his guitar.  Well… it’s that famous Fender. At one point I stepped in to move its position a bit, and felt like I got a side look from Bruce as I went to touch it. Then I saw it. The gouged-out space where it had been played against his belt buckle for so many years. I revere that guitar almost as much as I do Bruce. It kind of gave me the chills. I just moved in as he played and focused on his hand. It’s almost like he and that guitar are one.
