E-minor7 Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Never seen it, thanx for posting. Like the sound a lot - more than the somewhat cathartic performance, which is okay, but does less for me. Another good argument for re-trying the ceramic on the 1963 SJ. But every time I pick it up to do so, the DR Sunbeams 12-54's put on the 15th of June, sound so good that can't bear to interfere. One of those examples where strings and guitar grow together in symbiosis. Might keep the strings on and do the saddle switch tonite - I'm in the mood and carry slightly hangovers from yesterdays Stones event. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duluthdan Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 This guy has an uncanny ability to keep two different rythyms in tempo. I get off rythym in 4/4 time, with a metronome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EuroAussie Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Its interesting how close he strums to the brige, almost on the bridge itself ! He does it on all three videos. I wonder if he does that deliberately to get that brighter, tighter tone or just played that way all his life and is probably not even aware ?

ParlourMan Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 The Clock, Fake Plastic Trees then I might be wrong Good band, Johnny G is a great player / composer too, but only so much I can take of Thom's voice and his "googly eye" (Cheers Liam Gallagher) in a single sitting. Seems to be one of those bands where people feel wrong not to champion them, I must admit some of the tracks from the last 3 albums have been more interesting compositionally than they have been enjoyable listening fodder. In saying that, wicked live act and cool back catalogue (if a bit poloneck'ish in some quarters) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buc McMaster Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Its interesting how close he strums to the brige, almost on the bridge itself ! He does it on all three videos. I wonder if he does that deliberately to get that brighter, tighter tone or just played that way all his life and is probably not even aware ? Strumming close to the bridge does produce a brighter tone but it also provides better control. Near the bridge the string excursion is very small. The short excursion allows for better pick-to-string control that becomes more important when using quick, up and down strum patterns (8th note, 16th note.....I dunno...). The strings recover and return to their starting positions much faster near the bridge making finer control of the pick possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
