[divinemaster100]

what chords you use to play that song ?

[ChezterG]

@divinemaster100 looks like A6, D7, E9, D9 ??

[nudezooland]

I've gotta pair of PhatCats in my artcore and it's got a severe case of twang mixed with h'bucker kerrang--a righteous mix!!

[dirtpezz]

you should rock on an Rockabilly guitar!

it isn´t a jazzabilly- guitar, isn´t it?

[meharidude]

So what exactly is a rockabilly guitar? Most guitar that was made famous by rockabilly guitarists were made for c/w and jazz. That goes for the 6120, Stratocaster and Tele, basically all of them.

The trick is in the string setup and reverb. The AFS75T is a great rockabilly guitar.

[rawrfosho]

@meharidude what string set up would u recomend? high,low or what?

and how deep the reverb? thanks!

[meharidude]

@rawrfosho

A set of 0.10-0.46 is a good starting point, however some players used heavier string, Scotty Moore for instance. For more twang use lighter gauge. I use fender 50XL (11-14-22-30-40-50). You have to experiment with your reverb or echo.

A set of TV Jones Filtertrons or even GFS Retrotron Nashville or Liverpool pickups would get you closer to the vintage Gretsch sound. I use a fender Atomic at the bridge. Not perfect but better than the Ibanez one.

[TheFunkify]

It's slimline, not a big box, it's got a Bigsby, and he's put TV Jones in there...Of course it's a rockabilly guitar. Great post BTW, wondered how TV Jones would sound in mine.

[Hoopamazing]

@dirtpezz An AFS75T with those Filtertronish pickups is about as Rockabilly as it gets on a budget. It is, for all intents and purposes, a "poor man's" Gretsch 5120.

Thats All Right Mama with Mystery train mix sounds like to me at first

[jazzlouie]

can anyone tell me what song this is and how much an artcore will cost in the uk? cheers

[robbiej1959]

Not sure but close to Elvis' That's Alright Mama.

[JGTMTE]

I got this same guitar but in white for $800 Australian, so that's around £350

[Hoopamazing]

@JGTMTE You got robbed.

[Hoopermazing]

I don't know about the UK, but I just bought a mint condition AFS75T for $150.00 on Craigslist.

[bunklefee]

Great guitar i love mine.

i need to change the pickups on mine though.

maybe some P90s

[userfixit]

rockabily = hardest to play, best to lisent to!

[lexcorona85]

I can think of other styles being much more difficult than rockabilly, but I do agree about it being the best to listen to.

[kaos50style]

É o guitarrista do Bah Tchê e the Bellairs !!!

[ssiipple]

Rock-a-Billy is the best style in the world.

[mrseanster]

thanks for pointing that out.

add me on youtube.

[divinemaster100]

@ssiipple i think, thanks man!



[david0uu]

What's this song ?

[sickboy4755]

Was that originally the Artcore WITHOUT the faux Bigsby? The ones WITH them are an Inch thinner in the body. I was considering buying the thicker and doing the mods to Bigsby and TV Jones. If that's what you've done here, I'm more apt to try it, seeing as that's a pretty nice finished product! The stock pickups in the Artcores are pretty raw, but very little compares to those TV's!

[meharidude]

"faux" Bigsby? the Ibanez tremolo is actually a licensed Bigsby..And in some respects even better than the original. But yes, if the AF75 came with a tremomlo i'd bought that instead of my AFS75T.

[lilburnmafia]

that is one shiny guitar

[Bustoff3]

those artcore bridge pickups are like time machines to the 50s.

[kovachian]

Yea, too bad those aren't Artcore pickups you're hearing. You apparently didn't read the description.

[ugotpimp]

Is that an ibanez artcore??

I like your style dude.

[lasprind]

nice
