Duane Eddy

Duane Eddy es un guitarrista de rock'n'roll americano, nacido en Corning en el estado de Nueva York, el 26 de abril de 1938.
Popularizó el famoso sonido de guitarra eléctrica "twang", inspirado de la música country & western, obtenido sustituyendo las cuerdas graves del instrumento por las de un bajo, y una reverberación muy amplificada. Pariente pobre de este estilo, su influencia en el rock y el pop no es sin embargo desdeñable. Fue redescubierto en los años 1980 gracias a un muestreo del tema de Peter Gunn por el grupo Art of Noise.
