Assuming you're a big fan of the Cure (Judging by you gear) does he do all down strums a lot? When I watch live performances he moves his hand so fast I can't really tell.
@Commiteee For songs with a driving rhythm (Play for Today, a Forest) it's usually all down strums. Up/down strumming for slower stuff like 3 imaginary boys. But really, try both and see what's working. :)
AMAZING!! I actually particularly fell in love with the bass in this song (and not to mention others like a forest). I definitely want to cover some cure songs with people, only I'd like to try out using an electric upright bass ;)
@Reulor Yes it originally was white, but Smith kept changing it : he removed the paint to a natural wood color, then painted it black, then painted some psychedelic fish-like shapes over the black. No idea what it looks like now, but I don't think he ever uses Jazzmasters anymore.
Great guitar obviously (and you say that you also own a Fender VI) but you do get a very nice sound out of it. As to the playing it is not 100% accurate (especially on the Amin in the verse) but whether intentional or not, it works anyway.
Very enjoyable...but HarmonicsExplorer is right...strip it down so that we can here you- not the overly 'just like heaven' sounding lead fill...let's here more...
Well done. I see you are using same guitar that Robert used during the '17 Seconds' album. You have a different style of playing from what I have seen. Your guitar work sounds a bit different though close in spirit to the original.
Perfect

@Stof31 One more question, Is it just me or does he only do the down only in there early stuff? I don't notice it on anything after 17 seconds.

what chorus (pedal?) are you using?

That's one of the chorus modes of my Tonelab LE preamp. I think the one I used was "Multi-tap chorus".

The other guitar track is way over-voluming your peformance here. That's not what we want to witness. Strip it down.
