blindboygrunt Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Here’s my go at Jeffrey Foucault song stripping cane Feel free to critique and hurl abuse Martin sp strings have sounded great but they’re dyign on me now as Martin strings tend to do unfortunately I did like them but are getting ‘stiff’ ?

kwalker201 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Wow! What a great Foucault cover, you did it well sir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle fester Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Wasn’t aware of J Foucault, but I’m a fan of your cover. Guitar sounds really good - to me, that p’up does the guitar justice. Didn’t mind the springs being ‘stiff’, I liked the sound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayoubengal1954 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Sounds great, bbg! You have the look and sound of Greenwich Village, 1962. That's a good thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortyearspickn Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Great sounding guitar. Strings are fine. Your picking and singing are enviable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorrisrownSal Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Grunt that was flipping fantastic. I’ve heard you mention this artist before, but haven’t had the chance to explore. Great tune, and a great raw performance. Really how it’s done. Miss these posts. Keith you need to get back in the game too man... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blindboygrunt Posted June 25, 2018 Author Share Posted June 25, 2018 Thanks gents And Sal ... have a listen to him. You’d like it a lot I like playing his stuff but I don’t come close to doing t justice. He’s got a voice on him. Could sing the phone book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustystrings Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 I really enjoyed that! Have you tried John Pearse pure nickel acoustic strings on that guitar yet? My J45HC works really well with them, and our right hand approaches are similar enough that I think you might really like them. I still think the J45 Historic Collection is an underrated treasure and every time I play mine I am just so grateful to have it. Yours sounds lovely and is the essential accompanist's instrument.

Cool. Thanks for the kind words Never tried nickel strings. I will add them to the mental list for next purchase Have had John pearse strings before but they were just 80/20’s or Pb , can’t remember now. They were good strings but not any better than the regular daddarrios or Gibson strings and had an extra couple of £’s . Couldn’t see the extra money in them I got the SP martins under Jinder’s recommendation and was well impressed when I put them on. But the reason I never buy Martin strings is they just seem to die , suddenly .. these did the same. No warning , like a zippo lighter. Fantastic then all of a sudden - gone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
