... or should that be plectra I'm no good at that kind of English... to boldly go and all that. (If you are not a guitarist here is a health warning about this post, it may lead to you attempting to chew off a limb to retain conscious or keep your sanity...) My history of plectrum use is... Bloody huge triangular Gibson ones, heavy, I used to wear them out so they ended up pretty much circular in a matter of days/weeks. Odd at that time I had a Strat copy and used Gibson Strings and Gibson picks - I even went for Gibson strings with a wound third at one point after reading heavier strings gave a better tone... yes but you can't play the damn thing and could never get the intonation sorted out after an older mentor showed me what that nonsense was all about. For a long time there after I used Fender medium the hard once, often in tortoiseshell as I thought that classy for some bizarre reason. "Hello darling look at my tortoiseshell picks." I never had many girlfriends
Fantastic. So glad you posted this. What are you playing there and what's it plugged into?
ReplyDeleteMy PRS CE22 - used that as needs a humbucker sound and a vibrato.
DeleteThrough a Boss Chorus - on all the time.
Into my Hughes and Ketner Dual 6L6 2x12 combo - great amp. But... bloody heavy. I'm thinking of getting rid of it and something a little more versatile and portable, although the Dual sounds just great!
That was pretty good, I was diggin' it. Was that one gal in the front playing with her phone the whole time though?
ReplyDeleteShe had the lyrics on her phone! What is the younger generation coming to eh?
DeleteVery nice.
ReplyDeleteToo bad that talented people need to eat and feed the family as well imagine what one can do if life's duties did not get in the way.
It's difficult to get the real feel for the music, it sounded very "tinny" on my home computer seup.
ReplyDeleteVery cool. It seemed like you had fun.
