No.....Donnie Lytle changed his name to Donnie Young due to his admiration for Farron Young. During his time with Jones,he changed his name to Johnny Paycheck,after the boxer of a similar name. He later legally changed his name to Johnny Paycheck,according to his bio. His son still lives in Ohio,and runs the website I believe....


Back on topic, I know where one of Moon's Sho-Bud guitars resides....

Lloyd - Heart Bud



Pete - Diamond Bud



Jimmy - Spade Bud



Buddy Charleton probably got the "Club Bud" but no images found.

In Drew Howard's post you can spot Jimmy Day's Standell 25L15 amp. It's in the photo w/ Price with Willie on Fender bass. Jimmy traded his Standell to Chet for a Fender (I think it was a Fender Pro.) This is the Standell Chet used on most of his recordings. It eventually went to Paul Yandell and now it's display in the Chet exhibit at the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville.

A friend of mine has Hal Rugg's Permanent that was made for him in the late 60's. This guitar was for sale on reverb for a while. It wasn't advertised as being special in any way, they were asking 2 grand maybe at the most. I had written them letting them know that this guitar was probably an important piece of country music history. Most likely played on the Opry, or cutting Loretta Lynn hits, but I don't think they ever read my message.

I was able to figure out that this was more than likely Hal's old guitar by watching old video clips, comparing the woodgrain, placement of the sticker, keyheads, tuners. My friend was looking for his first steel... Obviously not the direction you'd point most beginners but this was a rare opportunity. Since I had just bought a guitar I couldn't pick this one up myself. I told him to buy this and if he didn't like I'd buy it from him later.

After he made the purchase the shop told him that it was on consignment from a guy who was up around 90 yrs old, and that he wanted to chat with whoever ended up with it. My friend called him and he confirmed that this was Hal's guitar that Sho Bud made for him around '67 or '68, when he decided to go back to a Permanent. It has the rack of spring loaded bellcranks for the lowers like they did on the later Permanents. I spent about a week playing and adjusting it when it arrived. Pretty special guitar. The pickups have coil taps on them, and the woodgrain is breathtaking.

This guitar was built in 70 or 71. I was sweeping floors at Sho-Bud at the time and actually did a little work on this guitar. I would love to have it if it ever becomes available as Hal was a dear friend and it's the first guitar I worked on.

I don't know where this guitar is, but I wanted to share this great photo that I took of Charleton in about '67.
