Eastwood blues

[theminpoes]

nice guitar and playing, man!

[Videowatcher76]

Dispite te lagging I thought the sound was great , nice playing .

[gacktxrawr]

great job.

[srvcrossfiresrv]

I detect so many great guitarists in your playing.. this is truely amazing.. Hints of SRV, Clapton, Hendrix, every great guitarist. Great style and phrasing man.. You got the blues!

[RunningFromthe80s]

great playing. Is it all pentatonics?

[Wildcatt1]

epic fail

[alanstrainor]

Good for you.

[loranceb]

why did you sell that guitar man?? cause i really want to get one from eastwood.

[alanstrainor]

Ah it just wasn't me, it was a great playing guitar, hell it even sounded great for what it was, but i just had too many guitars building up and that was the least played. I've recently acquired a gold top les paul to scratch my humbucker itch!

[eddiehalenvan]

lawlz the video its speeded up

[nuajnabetse]

Excellent playing, congratulations. it´s really good!!!!

[headstack]

Great playing man!

The lag is really funny though...

It is like watching a B movie karate blues video {:-D

[wifebeater79]

fuck all of you who think that was fake!!! that was more real than any of you will ever be, good job dude ur a good blues guitarist that's what i should be focusing more on instead of heavy metal which is what i play

[CyberjamClub]

Gr8 stuff m8y. Good vibe, you got there buddy. Very nicely done. 5*****. Come check us out buddy. You would be most welcome...

Regards,

Paul.

[fall0utboy]

just wondering if you were using a looper? great vid man

[alanstrainor]

Yup, i was using an rc 2 looper.

Cheers,

[originaltbyrd]

wow, alan, you're selling this guitar to me! i thought these are only for metal/heavy rock, but i see now this would make a great blues ax. it would do real good untili can afford the es335 i want. hmmmm.

[thehamaniac]

fake !?!

[alanstrainor]

No man, you just need to watch more carefully. There's a video lag

[fall0utboy]

yep there's video/audio sync issues but great vid

[Videowatcher76]

Watching his fingers and listening to the music that is playing , it sure does look fake to me .

[alanstrainor]

You mustn't be a guitarist then. There is a lag between the audio and the video. I'm not going to argue with you. Just watch my most recent video...

[Videowatcher76]

Well that's funny check out my video although the lighting is dark and I used a cheap digital camera set on High , notice there is no lagging whatsoever. And I'm not saying you can't play I'm just saying that it didn't look real.

[alanstrainor]

It's not the webcam. It's how youtube compresses the file, which in my case resulted in the audio/video lag.

[mccormickn]

Yeah come on everyone knows youtube compresses the video and messes up the timing. Honestly who in the world would upload a truly fake video? That would be such a ridiculous waste of time.

[jcote1974]

come on - even if there was NO audio I could tell this was real...any guitarist would...sounds good man...like the authentic feel of your style

[VonDutch777]

aww man i played one of those guitars once. Them things feel + finger amazingly. Its like playing a stick of butter...you can use that one if you want haha

[Southsider28]

Dude, It looks great, sounds great and the price is great, nice work

What Song?

[schmatzkeks]

man what's that!? THe moves in the video doesn't fit to the music, do they?

[Tanikaze2]

Nope. Video lag on youtube vids is this worst!

[Flann1]

How much did you pay for that gp?

[alanstrainor]

€600, i'm thinking of selling it, i'm so tempted by the Airline Tuxedo.

[d00derson]

i've never really cared for the looks of that guitar, but it has some great tone.

[alanstrainor]

each to their own i guess! Thanks though!

Cheers,

Alan,

[slurpieboi]

[PLUMBdogg]

derek

[alanstrainor]

Yeah...i know, i've made a few recordings, but none are in any way decent. I'll hope to put some more up in the near future. Thanks

Alan,

[organicpaul]

Really liked that but sound is out of sync with the picture , cant play along!Good work

[alanstrainor]

Cheers buddy,

Alan,

[RickBeall]

Oh yea, great tone and playing.

[alanstrainor]

thanks a lot man,

Cheers,

Alan

[Levesque999]

Is the tone rolled down?

[alanstrainor]

no, i'm pretty sure i have it on the mid position with the tone on full. possibly the volume for the neck pickup is rolled down a little bit, to give my tone a bit more bite.

Cheers,

Alan

[alanstrainor]

Fender Blues deluxe, ts9 tubescreamer, and a rc2 loop station,
