Peter

[chaztaps]

Someone please tab this song!

[MrTinyguitar]

Why does this not have more views. haha

[QuietReality]

Wonderful cover.

[minenu11]

Fabulous..........

[squeakymonkfish]

Nice arrangement.

[8goong]

omgod that was awesome!

[pvail06]

Im using a Boss BR1600 recorder which has a built in pre amp. Its a simple set up but works well if you dont use the EQ.

Peter

[gudroe7]

nice work bro good solid recording. i just bought the akg c 3000b. question what pre amp and recording setup did u use beside the mic? wondering about pre amps and stuff!!

[bt7358]

Awesome! Very nice.. been experimenting with DADGAD.. nice open sound... all new tho. Blessings...

[houseofnightseries22]

love the airiness of this mic

[robo2803]

Its the distance between the guitar and mic... I love the sound that non treated room has... plus a little reverb...very nice effect.

[RidvanDuzey]

Simply amazing ! You made such an beautiful version of this song !

[karbonesh]

is there any official Maton stores washington dc .... ????

[jammin2591]

hey mate love this vid. just curious, im looking at buying this exact same guitar, but some people say that the 808L model is just a crappier version of the 808. i wasnt sure if that was the case, and after hearing this vid im convinced its not, but im just wondering how u set up the mic. like is it just out of sight, or is it mounted inside the guitar??? thanks anyways

ben

[pvail06]

The mike is outta site. The 808L is the same as the 808 just differenr timber. This has walnut back and sides and a cedar front and an AP5 pickup same as 808. Superb guitar. The`808 has mahogany back and sides with a spruce front. Apart from the obvious tone atributtes of both types of timber I cant see any big difference. Perhaps there is on the top end model but i havent played it yet.

Peter

[Muzishan2]

wow thats an awesome tone...i might get the ac3000 now :P

how did you get it to sound so bright??? the ebg808l i played is ok, but didnt sound anywhere that bright in tone... or maybe its my playing... did u alter the sound at alll or did u just pump up the gain??

[pvail06]

The guitar is alos plugged in to a AER domino amp . It is just turned on and no more ,just for a little reverb. All eq is set flat on amp, mike and guitar. Guiatr is fitted wot elixer 12 - 52s strings which i find work really well .

peter.

[Adnamira]

@Muzishan2 Did you end up buying this guitar?The L stands for the laminated back and sides, which is Queensland Walnut. I played a friend's m325 and was suprised at how sweet it sounded. I don't think there are any guitars made with solid Queensland Walnut, and I don't think Maton make any cedar tops with solid back and sides, which is a pity. Out of all the Maton guitars, this one takes my fancy the most, because iit is cedar and doesn't sound exactly like TE.

[universalmind3000]

amazing sound....I really love maton guitars...also your playing is soooo good! 5*

[yipmicha]

wow just fantastic!

[ThinkingDog06]

Great -- really enjoy your playing, and the Maton sounds fantastic.

[jeffiers2233]

i love your style, i'm trying to describe it but the only word that comes to mind is 'foreboding'... and that's foreboding the most positive sense of the word! kind of daunting, warning of something... like the sound of a storm brewing or a hurricane approaching. well, whatever - great version of a song that i previously loathed! :)

[superguitarras111]

que lindoooo

[1millionthcustomer]

Great job on this classic, Peter. Really enjoyed watching it. I've got a fistful of stars here, so I'll just leave 5 of them here with this video. ;) Good job.

[westernsharpie]

c'mon nobody likes a showoff.......just kidding that was good should have sung too

[Rftank]

Amazing, I love it

[greenhorse10]

how do you hookup your microphone?

[pvail06]

Hey horse

I use a AKG C3000 mike plugged into the AER amp so I dont have to plug the guitar in. its a more natural sound but it picks up everything, lucky this day the dogs didnt bark !

peter.

[barrywalsh789]

wow!! i hate this song with a passion but that was amazing!!! i didnt realize there was other guitarists like this in ireland!! well done man!! :)

[pvail06]

hello barry.

cheers for an honest comment.Not my favourite tune either but sometimes it just works.

Peter

[dustenbybee]

hey man. that sounds incredible!!!! im debating on buying either a taylor 410ce or something, or a maton 12 string. its a tough decision. if i can afford to got a left handed maton shipped over to Alabama, i think i may do that instead of the taylor. lolol

[instrumentalist12]

Maton. Definately worth the extra shipping cost

[guitmartiman]

Cool! I need some tapping lessons!

[attybong]

wow! that's a lot of money pal... thanks for the info.

[aushandsomealvin]

Sounds awesome, well done 5 stars!! How did you manage to get a Maton all the way over in Ireland??? Maton's are the best guitars in the world in my opinion!!

[pvail06]

Got the Maton from Guitar village in London. they keep a good stock and are very good to deal with.Your right Matons are the best guitars in the world and at a price thats well below any serious competition.

Cheers Peter.

[aushandsomealvin]

And fortunately for me the Matons are manufactured in Australia so the deals are even better over here!!!

[attybong]

how much did you buy that maton for? just curious...

[pvail06]

I paid approximately £800 + postage which was about £30 .This also came with a good fitted case. Well worth the money when you play it side by side with the competition.

[dani5nc]

I very much enjoyed your playing:)!
