DG - Licks and Tricks 8.wmv

[JohnnyBadHabit]

Is he talking about using a reverse taper pot?

[LukeSniper]

@JohnnyBadHabit He got his terminology mixed up. The tone pot has a linear taper. The volume pot has a logarithmic or "audio" taper. It may seem like a linear increase in volume, but that's just because of how your ears work.

Audio taper = smooth, even shift

Linear taper = 0 to 10 in the first quarter turn, not much action after that

[TonyBellardi]

favoloso !

[Nevigo]

This is mindboggling.

[TrueMason]

he said "let me play a little blues one time"

[synesthesia67]

absolutely mind boggling....

[gshredder5150]

ohhhhh ghost noise at 4;16

[mussman717word]

4:46 - Holy fucking shit!

[wahmyboot]

Thanks to the editor's necessary visual effects I now know what Gatton meant by 'blues'.

[Fractaloid]

Man he sure knew the guitar inside out. Sooo good.

[oakstauto]

I can't believe there was this idiot camera man that had to interrupt though

[44eelz]

lol that tone trick was badass

[y2joylen]

whats the pedal piece connecting to the bridge, stretching across the body??

[2boredfortv]

@y2joylen he had an effects box that mounted to it, you can see it in his redneck jazz vid.

[gillan5]

I do only know of one other video (I have it) which also has tons of superb material which keeps you sitting in your bedrom and practicing for years) is the instructional video from Brian Setzer.

[PuddlesMD69]

THX So Much for posting Danny is one of the best I have ever seen!!

[KarloR27]

True heard about him recently and I have to say he's one of the best and this licks and tricks video will give yeah all the fun to play his style. Amazing player.

[amsedelm]

Ha! This is the best instructional video I have ever seen. Danny was hysterical! Tons of great tips. I will be studying this vid for a long time. Thank you for passing down your great talent Dan!

[outjazzer]

Man I miss Danny, such a great player and sense of humor. TONE!!! I never get tired of hearing him play.

[rhythmrancher]

What a great video!

I could have done w/o the little acid trip that the Hot Licks producers threw in the blues segment but luckily it was a quick trip and we got back to how awesome Danny truely was!!!

Thanks for posing it. He is surely missed.

[omegaman2370]

He was actually left handed that might go to explain the fantastic fret work that he used, he is very sadly missed. What I want to know is why is it that the real talent dies too young and all the crap lives forever?

[shred73]

all shredders should be forced to watch these vids..most of the guys with big hair and marshall stacks would piss their pants..

[Bass5el]

Indeed- I was fully into Vai et al, until I heard Gatton; at which point I dropped to my knees in front of the stereo and wept in disbelief.

[lilnetty2]

nothing against shredders, but I am more impressed by this.

much more musical....once you get past the velocity, shred bores me,and nobody I know who loves shred actually listens to it for fun. I love Yngwie's playing but his records,the songs/lyrics/vox are boring .

[gshredder5150]

@lilnetty2 This is shredding 0.0

[Modes9]

It looks like he was into the economy/sweep thing ahead of almost everybody else as well...

[xodusattack]

can anyone PLEASE tell me where I can get a TONE pot like the one he is using??? That stuff he is doing is so awesome!!!!!!

[billyp5201]

Miss you danny, thanks for all your lessons you given me in al the 80's you taught me to play Scotty Moores stuff.

[kapacon]

Danny was the embodiment of every great guitar player there ever was!

[Azrael888]

Hahaha, awsome! Danny is so cool he never runs out of things to play...

[capnovenmitts]

D-D-E-Fmaj7

[SonnyREast]

Can comeone please tell me those chords between 6:00-6:03?

[capnovenmitts]

Correction - he means a C# minor @ 2:53.

[Barnekkid]

Always glad to see anything from the Humbler.
