[jazzman3071]

I love your playing man. I wish I could play Wes as well as you do. Any hints? Great tone out of the Monarch as well.

Thanks for sharing.

Nice with the WES licks.

Please , bombero, what is band in a box?

[Bomberomusician]

@twixttime Band-In-A-Box is a neat little Digital Audio Work Station that uses Midi,Sound Fonts ,Real Tracks and Real Drums ( Actual Recorded Instruments ) to build a Realistic Sounding Band . The user writes the chords into the program and the program quickly builds a band around the chords. There are many different styles of music to choose from. It's a GREAT IDEA that the Smart Folks at PG Music designed.

How it works is beyond me... I'm just glad that it does!

@Bomberomusician

Thanks for the info.

Im glad you find something a mystery!

You really got Wes sussed, so you are no second rate magician, Lol.

I gave up playing the guitar about 10 yrs ago,doing Wes stuff

by ear alone Trouble is you need to read or have good musicians to learn off.

No-one knew him then in UK back then. So hit a wall, chord wise.

I do 3D creation now, if you look at my uploads, all my own.

You have made me pick up my guitar again.

I cannot thank you enough.

Thank you so much for your recommendation, I value that very much. I love the sound of this beautiful guitar and I'm like you I like that Fat sound of Wes. Love your playing, you play a mean guitar. Thank you for sharing and thank you for responding so quick.

Wish you all the best Maestro.

@jazzyedwin24 No hay de que hermano. Me gusta mucho tambien tu ejecución en la guitarra. Si necesitas algo no dudes en contactarme. Que te sigues adelante Edwin.

I'm planing to purchase a Peerless guitar, can you tell me anything about this beauty. How about the action of the guitar?. By the way your an amazing guitarist, love your sound and your superb playing.

@jazzyedwin24 Buy the guitar. You won't regret it. The action straight out of the box was ok. Just a bit high for my taste so I took the guitar to a good Luthier. He ajusted the neck along with the bridge to bring the action down a bit. I use the thickest strings (cables) that you can use. 14's Flat Wounds just like my man WES. A must to get that FAT WES sound. ;)

P.S. the tune " Ecaroh " I played with the guitar straight out of the shipping box.

( No adjustments what so ever )

Good Job.

You've definitely got the Wes thing down.

You did that backing with Band in a Box?

[Bomberomusician]

@anton5819130 Thanks. Yes I do my backing tracks with Band-In-A-Box 2011.5.
