It's actually a mutt. I bought a Jackson dinky new in 1989, and have put the neck on three or four different bodies. The original body was red firecrackle, btw.
Great job with one of my favorite songs & solos! There is some other guy, Stratman1920 something or other, who murders not only the notes, but the phrasing as well not to mention tries to sing...
Dammit! Anyone can copy a solo lick. Please, oh please, let's hear you play your own solo; so that we can see what sort of improvisational ideas you can conjure up.
I'm not chopping you. I'm just tired of everyone playing a solo verbatim, without any individuality. I'm still giving you 4 stars. But let's get with it, and play your own solo. That takes REAL TALENT.
Awesome son! I thank God for letting me live the extra 31 years to be able to watch someone play note for note that Kid Charlemagne solo - sumpthing I've always wanted to see eversince the days I kept repeating it on the vinyl way back then. I borrowed my son's guitar and started soloing again off late. Get to play the outtro too and post it for this old man will ya!
you're welcome. my previous comment was a compliment, rest assured. sorry if you misunderstood my view of your confidence level (you appeared arrogant). new question- have you seen '73 vid of skunk baxter doing "my old school" on mocked up tv appearance w/humbucklered telecaster? have you tried "my old school"? would love to see your work here.
you're arrogant and cool-just the way a great guitarist usually is. i enjoyed your video and the way you put it out. i love steely dan too, and your video helps me relate to what i want to play.good luck buddy.
Dude that was very good. That is a great solo and it's not only harder than it looks or sounds, it was way ahead of it's time. Larry would smile for sure. One thing I got to say. Give us more. Like maybe the ending to go with it?
Dude, I think this is the best rendition of that solo of the other postings I've seen (the others are pretty good too, but I think yours is the best). "Kid" is one of the hottest rock solos of all time.
Great solo, always one of my favorites. My cousin could play that in the 70's. When we would go to guitar shops and everyone was hackin "Stairway", he would play that. It would blow everyone away completely. It was great. Thanx for that - excellent job.
Thanks biglenny. I play this solo at guitar shops to check out the playability of whatever guitar I am thinking of getting. Hope your cousin is still rockin' out :)
great solo, but dude, a pink Jackson? really?

Not really... It's a standard response for naysayers who don't have anything to back up their own abilities or credibility...
