IanHenry Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Mr Bonamassa knows all about using his tone and volume controls on a Les Paul, he's spot on with this: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retired Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 He does play fast up and down the fretboard for sure. As much as he charges for tickets he ought to know his way around a guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Pepper Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) Saw him once. He opened for BB. He's good and wants to put his name on everything. I can take about 4 or 5 songs from the modern blues guys and I've had enough. At least he used his good guitars at gigs. Edited January 30, 2022 by Sgt.

merciful-evans Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I should really go acoustic. I cant use knobs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mihcmac Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) I took my Junior DC to band practice last week, most of my guitars have 2 P90's, found that with the single pickup I could quite easily cover the tone ranges I get with 2 pickups by just tweaking the volume and tone. Similar to what Joe was demonstrating, P90's do seem to give more to work with. Edited January 30, 2022 by mihcmac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there were no knobs or switches I wouldn't have to worry about knocking them accidently. I have considered gaffa taping them to prevent this.

No, nothing to do with the voice but I don't like Hard Rock. The 60's, 70's songs I like and slow blues. Gregor Hilden is one favorite of mine.
