Ever had a bad day, this is what you do , after endless days trying to play the dam thing , One day yes one day it clicks you can just about to manage that blues lick from start to finish . This makes every bad day turn into a great day , Great blues playing BluesHeavy ! .
35 comments? come on you deserve way more. Really really great work. five stars. btw does the viking get out of tune quick after you've been bending notes?
@simonsaidwhat Thanks ad about the tuning no better or worse than any other guitar I have owned. I had a Les Paul and the D and G String forever out of tune. It alos depends on your ear. My ears have gotten better and now I pickup even quicker when the guitar is even slightly out of tune.
I'm a newbie so can someone help me out with the progression for this song? what key and stuff? Cause it sucks to have the blues from this song and not be able to express it...lol
Great job man, most people, including myself, don't even try to sing while playing guitar on here! Kind of wish you had recorded the whole song though. As far as tone, I like it. You can buy a thousand guitars but you'll always have the same fingers. Awesome video!
wow! love ur playing and singing. I'm gonna get a Hag. viking, but im trying to decide over the deluxe or the regular.(like urs)Anyways,i've been looking everywhere 4 a dealer,but i cant find one near me. i cant buy it without playing it first... plus i don't trust that the online stores will have the best quality in guitars.(like it might have frut buzz and scratches)where did u get yours?
I got through Ebay this Guy was selling them in Canada. Not to many music stores carry them. I didn't play the deluxe but I think all your paying for is the Inlays and Color not worth the extra Scratch Musicinasfriend Carries them online and you can send it back for free if you dont like it.
Well, I have a Gibson 335 and a Gibson Les Paul and a vintage Hofner Archtop along with a 73 Strat and other guitars... Believe me, one thing I have learned is chasing a tone is an unforgiving experience! My advice would be to keep your Hagstrom and get the LP in addition as it will never sound as soulful as you have made this sound, and consequently, you will regret your loss later!!
This Hagstrom sound is a cross between a 335 and a Tele... a long way from a LP
Nice job man, i dont remember freddie playing with a pick tho :o i got to see his daughter Wanda King play this year at a bluesfest. probably the best singer ive ever seen, her guitarist was sick too. my own artcore is on theway, hopefully ill be putting up some videos soon
He did play witha pick however he had a thumb pick and one on his pinky and played that way. If you check out hs video on youtube Live from Sweeden you can see it.
Very sweet dude! Freddie one of my faves...And thanks for playing a hollow body...Evey one seems to play nothing but strats !.. I have a Heritage 535 semi hollow that i love..Run it through Dr Z MAZ 18 head w/ 2-12 cab...i just ordered the BB..cant wait to get it !!! Thanks again for playing great BLUES !
Thanks I appreciate it you will love the BB I would even recommend getting the AC Booster and set one to boost and the other to overdrive. I alos see your a fan of Chubby and Bill Perry. I got to play with Bill at his open mic jam before he passed he was awsome.
Nice tone, you should get an iMac and do some recording with Garageband. You would sound a million times better if this were multitracked and mixed down. Nice licks bro! Sweet tone on the Hagstrom Viking.
Good job man....
