Perhaps the most 'classic' country sound, honky tonk is a style rich with twangy vocals, moaning guitars, and lyrics that alternate between happy-go-lucky (Hank Williams' "Hey, Good Lookin'"), darkly quirky (Al Dexter's "Pistol Packin' Mama"), and totally down-and-out (Ted Daffan's "Born to Lose").
Previously country had been based around acoustic picking, but newly developed electric guitars and other amplified instruments quickly became a popular way to cut through the rowdy din in local roadhouses, juke joints, and 'honky tonks.' Pedal-steel guitars were added during the '50s, enhancing the music's mournful tone.
