Love the sound and kudos to your great jazz playing, but I have to say that I can pretty much get these same tones with a stock humbucker in my Gibson L-5 CES through an original '66 Deluxe Reverb. I find that a lot of that cool bark on a sharp pick attack comes having an articulate amp and nice old tubes that are good and hot. Not a criticism of your great video, just an observation. Sounds great, man!
Hey ElectronRomance, the noise is due to a ground problem in my home.. This makes my amps quite noisy. Anyway the charlie pick up is not a humbucker and I sometimes have buzzzzz on some stages (due to ground problems, light or PA systems..). Definitly NOT a modern pick-up but a fucking great sound :). So many players have a clean flat boring reverbered sound, there is a place on this earth for dirty hairy sweaty messy guitar sounds :)
Lovely tone from your banjo man. Super! I can hear how it has that CC edge to it. Interesting sound attack from the pickup! What type of strings are you using flats or wounds? Love the barking sound when you pick hard. I can only get that out of my ES165 if I put a fair amount of compression on it and it is just not the same. I wish I still had my 125 but alas we parted long long ago (prior to marriage!) The pup you have had installed was not available then.
@Cabbycabbage definitly flatwounds 10/50 d'Addario. but sounds great with half rounds and rounds wounds... You're right this pick up is very sensitive to the way you pick and attack... It offers a lot of textures depending on the way you attack...
Bonjour, super son et super jeu, j'ai releve ton solo, bon hommage a la tradition mais avec de l'originalite. Est-ce que tu as d'autres videos, par exemple sur "rhythm changes". Ou est-ce qu'on peut t'ecouter en "live"?
Salut Ariel, merci beaucoup pour ton commentaire ! j posterais d'autres vidéos dès que j'aurais récupéré ma guitare qui se refait une beauté (frettes) chez le luthier ! je suis dans le sud de la France, je pourrais t'envoyer des dates de concerts selon ou tu te trouves ! Amitiés guitaristiques..
@chooseyourblues Hey there, thanx a lot for your nice comment. whenever you're in the south of France, drop a message here, will be glad to chare a beer !!! ;)
The guitar is in amazing condition! Is it original or refinish? Also when you installed the cc pickup, did you leave the dogear holes open or did you fill them up? Amp sounds great and your playing is great!!!!
Hello Mike thanx a lot for your comment ! The guitar is in its original condition with no refinish. When you have a close look you can say that it's 56 years old ! I had it installed by a talented luthier and he had to sligthly enlarge the P90 hole, so now the 2 original screw holes are invisible..
I've had the cc pick up for one month now and played several gigs and I still can't believe how great,defined, bassy and subtle it sounds ! lots of possibilities !
@martimax34 Merci beaucoup pour ce message Mr P ;) ! Deja un mois que le micro est installé et je commence a prendre mes marques ! des possibilités fantastiques et un son incroyable ! je ne regrette pas ! a bientot ! Rémi.
whistling noise aside nice tone..plenty of bloom,although even more could be had with an alnico speaker like a weber 12a125a.

Hi! What's that high-pitched whistling noise at 2:42. Is it the pickup? - 'cause it seems to disappear when you roll off the volume.
Thanks.

Man great playing. Your room looks like the sort of place i'd like to kick back with a few drinks and a box of Marlboros. Records everywhere!!!
A1. Great feel.
