MorrisrownSal Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Grunt, I clicked... saw Ashton Kutcher with a Gibson.... and I said "I'm not gonna watch this". Then I did. What a genuine neat sound. It was great.... shame in me for silly predispositions. Where do you find this stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EuroAussie Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Lovelly tone from that slope. Is it realy banner or re-issue ? He'd a dead ringer looks wise to Evan Dando from the Lemonheads, aint he. That track didnt do much for me, but I do rather like this one quite a bit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqmGPBzZjsc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j45nick Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Reminds me of college days: a bunch of us sitting around under the trees on a spring day, playing guitar. Life was a lot simpler, even in 1968... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortyearspickn Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 That was amazing. I am humbled every time I see a new, previously unknown (to me) young talent like Mr. LeBlanc. . Looks like he just sat down in a park with some guy doing an interview and gave a Radio City Music Hall quality performance. The finger picking was amazing - and the J45, in spite of the obvious lack of audiophile-aphobia equipment was perfect. I was especially impressed when he slightly flubbed a note on his 6th string around 2:45, and laughed at himself without missing a beat. This guy is living proof of why the guitar is the most popular instrument in the civilized world. And this is why the J45 is the most popular guitar in the civilized world.

I was like, here we go, some hipster dude playing "Americana"...but I really enjoyed this and the songs I listened to after this one. That fourth cord he plays before he starts the actual song is something I ned to figure out...the one he plays when returning to first position after running the first three chords up the neck at 0:29.

62burst Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Reminiscent of . Missing your J-45 yet? So- the 1990's Hummingbirds were long scale 'til about 1997 (thx, Aliasphobias). . . how 'bout the J-45's? fairly full moon, tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So- the 1990's Hummingbirds were long scale 'til about 1997 (thx, Aliasphobias). . . how 'bout the J-45's? fairly full moon, tonight Pretty sure the only long-scale J-45 versions were the square-dread models from late 1969 until about 1982. The round-shoulder short-scale J-45 model apparently came back into production in Nashville in 1984. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modern re-issue (20 frets) my guess: mid 90ies regular j-45. banner with block gibson logo, tulip tuners. The volume and tone knobs for the pickup are visible in the soundhole too.

sbpark Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Remember, he's not in standard tuning on this song. Exactly. That's why I said "I have to figure it out.". Standard thing it would be a no brainer to figure out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissouriPicker Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 This guy is excellent. Thanks for introducing him to us, BBG. Nice to hear someone that doesn't sound like 90% of the rest.
