moej45 Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Well I've still lurked here but have not suffered from any MAS since acquiring my guitar a few years back. Sounds better every day. I did this for the Tiny Desk contest and will give a good idea of the sound. Its a little out of tune and needs a setup but still sounds great. This Northeast weather is a ***** on guitars https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2ak-vxoJk0

Jalex Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Your voice and guitar sound great. I enjoyed it.
duluthdan Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 You have probably heard this before, but let me say it again: NEVER SELL THAT GUITAR ! Wow, what great Gibson tone. Nice song and performance - very Vermonty.
roughdiamond Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Remember the voice...'down at the bar there drinking 12 ounce American dreams while the women feed their children on broken swallow? screens'...think that's you right? Liked that song. Keep it rockin' man
MorrisrownSal Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Works for me. Great guitar, and better song. Nice, brother.
MissouriPicker Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 I like that song, and that guitar has that Gibson thump. Excellent.
flatbaroque Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Beaut!You and that guitar are a great combo. And Moe you are a much better songwriter than Larry or Curly
Mickthemiller Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Great song and that guitar has a beautiful tone
moej45 Posted February 4, 2016 Author Posted February 4, 2016 Thanks everyone! I realized I hadn't posted here in awhile and I always LOVE demo videos. I backed into finding this guitar and I think it was meant to be. She's got that Honk for sure and overtime I play a show and bring it out there are a couple of gasps. ha....street cred!
blindboygrunt Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 Good stuff , haven't done that partial capo trick in so long . Might see if it works for me today. Inspiring . keep posting.
EuroAussie Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 Yep, cowboy chords on a Gibson is a match made in heaven, your voice was ideal for this, well done.
retrorod Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Good stuff , haven't done that partial capo trick in so long . Might see if it works for me today. Inspiring . keep posting. Hey BBG, Inspiring- I agree! Would you explain the partial capo trick as it used in this song/video? I love the drone tone on his guitar...dropped D I assume?

I love the drone tone on his guitar...dropped D I assume? If you look closely the capo is only over 5 of the strings , leaving the low E uncapoed. You get an equivalent of drop tuning , but then forming the G chord still plays a G .... Except its not G because we're capoed at 2 , so its an A ... Making sense ? :-/ Simplest is just capo at 2nd fret putting capo on uoside down over 5 strings. You dont need to tune any strings down . just leave them standard tuning
retrorod Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Got it! Will have to give it a try on my SJ.
