WATCHING you play the lead STRIKES ME IN A STRAGE WAY -- unless I am MISTAKEN(?) -- (and you sound exactly like the album) --the song is played in 3 different KEYS or POSITIONS, i/e., as the bass riff moves along the I --IV --V--pattern-- Gibbons plays his lead in that position WITH the blues scale normally associated with that key (as if he changes the key) -- AM I WRONG???
awesome. I'm totally going to school on this. I play the rhythm part a little different but didn't know where to start with the lead. thanks. nice job!
Have Mercy! Sounds great and nice SG Special. Does it have P90 pickups? I've been playing 'La Grange' lately in my band (also from the Tres Hombres album).
"Bravo" to France !
You play this with love. It's very good, i want to be your guitar friend.
I 'll play this song to.
See you soon. Thank you Billy ! Smile

Ciao Umberto !
E' una SG special del 2008 (credo).
Pick ups P90, di cui quello al ponte è alzato fino ad alcuni millimetri dalle corde, pur non provocando alcun feedback.
Che impressione hai avuto di questo strumento?
Un cordiale saluto.
roby62gtr 1 year ago
@roby62gtr mi piace più questo modello di quello standard e poi i p90 sono molto bluesy un pò taglienti sulle medie frequenze.
per il feedback secondo me è perche usi un'overdrive perche se alzi l'ampli o aumenti la distorsione vedrai che.....wooooooooo

Hi Roby , great playing and sound, I did not know this song by ZZtop.

This is a classic ZZ Top's song. I always loved it.
I suggest you to hear ZZ Top's "Tres Hombres" album.

Questo brano, secondo me, è diventanto un classico. L'ho sempre adorato anche io.
Forse avrei potuto provarlo un altro paio di volte, ma era troppa la voglia di pubblicare qualcosa, visto che non lo facevo da qualche tempo.
Ti ringrazio molto per il commento e ti faccio tantissimi auguri di buone feste.
