HOW DOES A CHEAP GUITAR SOUND? - Staring At Clouds - Original song

[buskerjohn1]

Is the weissenborn from republic? Nice playing , very enjoyable!

[hotfirecaster]

@buskerjohn1

Thanks, no it's a Tony FRANCIS Weissenborn (Style One).

Cheers,

Chris

[smyffyraver]

My brain connected with this, on so many levels that is so very similar to the way I play. I really enjoyed it... I was wondering if you passed on the tabs to anyone? Because I think I could use this constructively to add to my skills of guitaring. I really enjoyed that, nice one mate Thumbs up... this video touched me

[bryantuten]

Am I the only one that has no audio?

[hotfirecaster]

@bryantuten

I think so...

[hotfirecaster]

@bryantuten

Audio is on the left side...

[PinkieStanley]

Very nice music! Thank you!!!

[feelingproject]

Ehh!! ...Peace men

[SuperSunshine1964]

I love it just the way it is! Can't wait for the lyrics! It sounds like a country melody!

J'aime juste la façon dont il est! Ne peut pas attendre pour les paroles! Il sonne comme une mélodie pays!

[theSHROUDS]

This song does something that so many songs don't. It makes the listener forget the technique used to play melodies, and just focus on the feeling behind it all. Thanks for this tune!

[hotfirecaster]

Thank you very much for your long comment. I'm glad about what you said.

Thanks again,

Chris

From Paris,

Chris

[AyrtonSenna247]

I always had a thing for this one...

I can't put my finger on it Chris.. it just one of those sounds and songs that hits the spot you can't explain.. as you don't know where it is yourself.. but you know when it hits it... pure peace and love!..

Peace out my good friend!! :)

Been supporting you from the start, and always will!

Your music means the world to me my good French friend!

[hotfirecaster]

Hi,

Well thanks a lot for your comment, Music is my companion for so many years, and perhaps my best friend when I feel lonely. I'm glad you liked it, and be sure that if you found it "emotionaly charged" it means a lot for me! Thanks for your kind words.

[hotfirecaster]

Merci beaucoup!

Toutes ces étoiles rendent mon ciel bien plus lumineux.

Chris

[FannyFa]

C'est génial, j'aime vraiment beaucoup ce son. C'est quoi comme guitare? Le son est très équilibré... Sans parler de la beauté de la mélodie!!

[hotfirecaster]

Encore merci! La guitare est une "Lap Steel Guitar" ou aussi appelée Weissenborn.

Merci aussi pour la mélodie ;-)

Chris

[UnsignedMusiciansRS]

That was beautiful!!!

[hotfirecaster]

[oldarizona]

Chris

[morgoth195]

Nice, very nice.

I am hoping to get a lap-steel soon, but it will have to wait until after I buy an electric mandolin!!

[hotfirecaster]

Hi,

Mandolin is cool too ;-) So many nice instruments to play. But only two hands ...

;-)

[tuktukskagal]

This-was really beautiful;could you tell me what you were using in your left hand(sorry;I don't know).I liked your waving;soI waved back! Thanx.

[hotfirecaster]

Hi,

Thanks for watching and commenting. In my left hand I hold a "Tone Bar" also called a "Steel Bar" it's a bar made of steel used to fret the guitar.

Cheers,

Chris

[NossedEvoTwin]

The Tony Francis is gorgeous, & in good hands.

Thanks for a soul touching listen.

[hotfirecaster]

;-)

Thanks,

Chris

[SNAXDUO]

wonderful

[hotfirecaster]

Thank you so much

;-)

Chris

[MauritsP]

Beautifully played Chris, very well done. I'm still learning to play steel properly and this style is what I'm going for.

[hotfirecaster]

Hi,

Thanks for your kind words. Steel guitar is fun and cool, I began one year and a half before, and now I prefer lapslide than regular guitar, very expressive instrument.

Take care,

Cheers,

Chris

[nicelyweird]

Nice playing, has a nice flow going with it. Do you like John Butler at all? (random question)

[hotfirecaster]

Hi,

Thanks for your comment. Of course I love JB his guitar, steel guitar, banjo work is just amazing!!! But my masters are more guys like David Lindley, Kelly Joe Phelps, and of course Ed Gerhard.

Have a nice day,

Chris

[arvvaz89]

[franckph]

Salut Christophe,

Merci pour ton commentaire sur ma chaine. Je vois que tu as ce point commun avec moi: tu ne sais plus où mettre tes instruments. est-ce une maladie?

belle et douce composition, jeu en toute souplesse.

bonne continuation

Franck

[hotfirecaster]

Bonjour Frank,

A mon tour de te remercier. Concernant les instruments, et en particulier les guitares je dois avouer que je suis souvent atteint du G.A.S virus mieux connu sous le nom de "Guitar Acquisition Syndrom" ;-)

A bientôt,

Christophe

[FiveDollarGuitar]

[hotfirecaster]

You're welcome!

Inspiration comes and go.

I wish it comes more often than go.

LOL

Chris

[dominiquedv]

La steel guitar ressemble étrangement par son jeu et sa sonorité à l'épinette des Vosges dont je joue....

Très beau morceau, c'est vraiment le style que j'aime.

[hotfirecaster]

Merci Dominique, pour le commentaire et pour avoir jeté un oeil et les deux oreilles à mon morceau.

Chris

[billybee53]

Cris, This being my first listen to your music I feel as if I have suddenly discovered a new strain of human creativity. Music is not music unless it is from the heart. Anyone (even a fool like me) can see and hear that you have a special connection to this universe. We envy you.... It is an honor to make your aquaintence.

[hotfirecaster]

Hi Billy,

Wouah your words goes straight to my soul man! I'm self guitar taught and many times I was about to quit... I try to play from the heart, if this one makes you feel it comes from here, so I'm the happiest man of the world.

Thank you so much for your kind words!

And keep posting I love your stuff Pal.

Cheers, à bientôt,

Chris

[sguitar]

Cheers,

Chris

[chrsfldr]

Superbe, très beau son qui apporte sérénité et calme...ce à quoi la musique devrait servir n'est ce pas............., même si parfois c'est aussi un défouloir.... pourriez juste la faire un p'tit peu plus long?

[hotfirecaster]

Merci pour le commentaire. Content que mon morceau vous ait plu. J'ai du le faire un peu cours car sinon j'allais dépasser le poids de 100MO autorisé par Youtube.

A bientôt sur Youtube.
