Man, if I were you, I would visit guitar shops on daily basis, ask them to recommend a beginner guitar under 200 quid and play the shit out of it. Unexpected much
btw i think that allan holdsworth is kind of an obvious influence (i'd be pretty surprised if i was wrong), but i hear a bit of kiko loureiro in there too. is he an influence by any chance? still, i have never heard anything quite like this, it's really really good.
no, there isn't much ej in this. the phrasing is absolutely nothing like ej's. it just has a very similar atmosphere, but musically it's pretty different.
Sea foam green axe....my favorite color for the strat. Nice smooth noodling. If you added a little alternate picking and tapping you would have sounded like Sach.
Tom... that was amazing true respect. But I have a request, could you do something along the lines of a jazz balla such as Body and Soul, Round Midnight, My One and Only Love, Etc... I would love to hear that!!! keep up the good sounds.
Sweetest neck I've ever seen on a strat and the tone through the Port City is just staggering. Also very cool (I'm repeating myself) to hear you slow down and focus on tone, dynamics and harmony and not go in full-burn legato mode as would be easiest. Maybe its just the tiredness, but in the last few videos something has changed somehow and it seems to me like you're really searching for that uniqueness of voice in your playing. Keep it up - you're really onto something, beautiful playing!
Excellent playing and a wonderful tone. I love your style, technique and tone. Overall, you are a phenomenal musician. However I feel your chops, riffs, and licks have been prematurely defined and exhausted. My opinion may not matter at all and I hope you do not take this offensively, as I myself am an average bedroom player and am not claiming to be even remotely close to your skill level. Only now will I trouble you with such a statement but I shall forever enjoy your music!
