You know, there's no sense in calling people names on their vids. Even if U don't like it let them do what they like. By the way, good guitar playing and good bass line.
hey moron. This guys got more balls that you could ever hope to have. He's putting himself up on this where he can be criticized or commended. He's no wuss and can do whatever the hell he wants there his videos. You frigid bitch, show some respect to some one like this guy who has a true talent. Keep your playing up by the way man!
It deppends on what for. If you want lots of jangly byrds,beatles etc and play arpeggios through a vox or a good compressor and a clean amp then the Ricky. For strumming I love acoustic/electric 12 strings (I play my dad's tanglewood which is good for the money)
man...thanks so much for doing this and posting it. i use to play this song when it first came out a long time ago. going to play it again at a jam bar where i live. this will help so much. thanks again.
NICE JOB

wow, you have a good taste in gear. I've got a 330, and I'm planning on getting an AC30. How well do you think the sd-1 works with the AC30?

Definitely one of the best covers on youtube. For some reason this bass line is great. Simple, but great. Good job!

While the rickenbackers are amazing, I got to say go for the elctric acustic. look into a breedlove.
