When Stevie Ray Vaughan broke a string in the middle of a song, his guitar tech Rene Martinez played his role perfectly!
Stevies guitar technician for many years, today Rene is John Mayer's guitar technician.

The two worked perfectly to make this moment happen, and the fans were none the wiser! It has the beauty and speed of a Nascar Pitcrew!

RENE:

1. Ran out with a guitar
2. Handed it to SRV
3. Attached the strap locks.

SVR:

1. Unplugged the guitar (keeping hold of the chord).
2. Unplugged both strap locks (while still palming the chord).
3. Grabbed the guitar, rotated it into the right position.
4. Plugged the chord back in.
5. Starts playing again without a strap, holding it up for the tech with his right forearm and left wrist.
6. All of the above while singing.
