Hi Anders,

Thanks for the comments. You have good ears. Actually, I did use the middle pickup on that section, but I recorded the soundtrack separately, which is why you don't see me switch pickups on the video.

Best regards, James

Hi James, the difference is so small when you compare both recordings, but the end product is a lot fuller sounding guitar. T.U. for this alteration.

Regards Brian

Hi Brian,

Thanks for watching/listening to both of my versions of The Stranger. I agree that tweaking the sound in this small way made a big difference in the end result.

Regards, James

Hi Joop,

Thank you so much for watching version 2 of The Stranger and for your kind comments. I agree that the TVS3 is a great unit to reproduce those vintage echoes of The Shadows.

Cheers, James

Hi Ric,

I agree that my second version of The Stranger sounds a lot better than the first. The EQ settings made a big difference. I appreciate your kind remarks.

Cheers, James

Thanks Shep!

Hey James!

So much the better. More open and fatter. Almost perfect!

I think you've won a lot of the new EQ setting.

If you want to take another step toward Hank sound so strongly recommend to change strings to 11-52 with wound g-string. Especially if you have more guitars. My experience is that I get much fatter sound and the Vox AC30 delivers a true vintage sound immediately. I do not know if you send the signal through the amplifier behind you?

Best wishes from Stockholm, Sweden

Hi Rolf,

Thanks for your suggestions and encouragement. I agree this version sounds better, and heavier strings will help even more in future.

Best Regards, James
