@scoieman I just bought the Sterling Silo 30. Great guitar. I got mine at my local guitar center for about $200. It has all the components of an expensive guitar, but is affordable. It also has great sound.

[tylerdwells]

i think you need to change the name of the video to "5 minute guitar tricks"

[scoieman]

any good ideas on a good, but cheep electric guitar?

[stratoman]

@scoieman there are many great choices...used can be a better deal if no fret-job is needed. always leave $ for a pro-setup. the PRS SE series are great and so are some of the lower-end fender guitars and epiphones. set a price limit and include at least another $50 to $75 for a setup.

@scoieman danelectro dc 59 pro guitar 200 dollars I love that guitar

[hurge3]

@scoieman Shelter and Tagima, these two guitars have a model called Stratocaster, which is a good model for beginners and intermediaries.

However if you search a even more intermediary guitar, try Shelter Les Paul or Cort Les Paul.. thats my opinion

[scoieman]

im gonna get an electric guitar, but dont have much money. any suggestions on a cheap, but good guitar?

[firedevin]

@scoieman Ibanez models aren't all that expensive and they can hold up pretty well

[imatube2]

Damn, you're getting a nice thick tone out of an ash guitar. Not to mention maple / ebony neck, and a floyd too!

Should sound really bright and thin... but it doesn't. What's the secret?

[stratoman]

The guitar was built by John Carruthers (Venice, CA) and it can get a wide spectrum of tones. I use a handful of pedals and either an original 1966 Princeton Reverb or Matchless SC30 on these vids. There is a bid on this channel I did on setting up your pedal chain you might find helpful. Thanks for your comment.

[skier123453]

so I have a random guitar question...

I would like to know what type of pedals I can add to my rig that would help with sustain...

Thinking of tone like Robin Trower, Tre Anastasio...i.e) holding long whole notes into fast jazzy licks...

I have the licks down....I am just having problems with sustain when i really dig into a note i want to hold

thanks for your help

[stratoman]

Use a compressor. They are available in a variety of price points. I personally use the JoeMeek Floor Q optical compressor. I used a Carl Martin for years before that. Keely makes two very nice models. Try them all with your personal rig. Sustain is also in your touch and vibrato. Distortion increases sustain as well, but you need to sustain notes that are clean too, so practice your touch and try a compressor. Make sure you can return it.

[perki10]

yeah you dont look like robert de nrio at all sorry

[Ace888oncp]

Pretty cool dude! I dont know how to play but i have a disortion pedal with a starter guitar. I'll try it.

[stratoman]

It's easy, you can do it.

[XXXXiron]

[outbreak50]

Hello!!

Thank you very much for this guitar tricks, i'm still a beginer but a learned a lot with that. Some of my collegues told me that i've improved my skills very fast just because i was playing around with yr posted tricks.

Really thanks for that and congratulations. Taking this opportunity, i would appreciate if you can post simple lessons about swip/harpegios., i really enjoy that however it's not so easy to do fast and with perfect notes...(for me!)

[stratoman]

Yes, in fact when I was in Hawaii a couple of years back, people said that to me twice in the same day. Apparently he was had just visited a week before so lots of people stopped me to tell me that. Now if only I had his talent and his money. Or just the money would be fine. Hmmm, I wonder if he plays any guitar.

[denty50]

have anyone told you you look like robert de niro:;)?

[rockstarslivetoparty]

[stratoman]

[stratoman]

Glad you like it. Please subscribe. I will put up more lessons soon.

[killerhobo97]

[stratoman]

you got me. some are a tad longer, but they are short and easy to do and I think the title induces people to try them...which is my goal. I hope the trick was of benefit to you. thanks for your comment.

[killerhobo97]
