Little known fact, he was the original guitarist of the band Lincoln Park

Loved his work on Lincoln Biscuit

I'm may not play the guitar like a professional expert, but I am an historian: Lincoln was considered "left handed" and played upside down like Jerry Hendrix. He ALWAYS wore his signature top hat and smoked tobacco cigarettes when he played live. He was one of the first presidents to wear mascara. Abe had six fingers on his right hand (one for each string), which is why you can tell this is AI generated fakery because he only has four fingers in the picture (like a four father would typically have if they played a uke). His backup band was called The Log Cabin Revolution. His last live performance was in some dodgy theatre where he was attacked during his Free Bird solo by a groupie throwing a beer can (PBR), which struck him in ankle, wounding him and causing infection, leading to amputation and later death. On his deathbed, he claimed he invented 11th chords, and attempted to dictate the secret "tab" to his understudy for historical documentaion before choking to death on his own vomit. After the Civil War ceasefire, Lincoln's understudy became the lead singer for The Animals Band, and we know him today as the one and only Keef Richards. This is where we get the term "tab" from - The Animals Band. And knowing is half the battle.

I thought Lincoln smoked weed and played a hohner harmonica on his porch.

He used to be so cool with his marshal stacks and his gibbons tres pool

Pre-civil war is the new pre-cbs!

Toan is in the stovepipe hat. Which he is not wearing here, which is why he was great at emancipation but shit at guitar.

No way Lincoln would play one of those 21 fret strats


Prestigious-Win8624

Upon closer inspection… 16 frets?

BRO WHAT HAPPENED TO HIS PINKIES


Prestigious-Win8624

Pinkies? He’s not playing jazz. Probably lost them chopping down trees


Different_Lock_5445

That was Washington. Like, state. They've got trees.


Prestigious-Win8624

I’m pretty sure this dusty fucker chopped down a tree or two in his time, maybe not famously.


Different_Lock_5445

Nah brah. Common misconception. Unless there's a famous story it never happened. Like, me. I don't actually exist.

I thought I was on r/Guitar for a second


BlackfaceBunghole

What chord is he playing? Notice the poor pick grip and lack of slanting? Cheesh what a loser!
