Don't think this is very Winterish at all. The slide style is not even remotely close to WInter so the only thing that has any Winter in it is the title. Love Govan, but this should be called something else.

only hav one thing to say u ppl are repetedly mentioning bad comments about someone who can melt ur face off play COUNTRY. if ur saying thats missing soul ur just saying u dont know music and how much it takes to play something like that how much theory u must know how much time and skill and practice and work u put into it theres only one thing that stands betwen idiots like u ppl who dont like this and ppl who like this... and that is they are musically developped into knowing what is good.
holy shit! He makes his slide playing sound like a harmonica! Such massive mid range tone! wow this is just freakin killer cool. The backing tracks sound really good too from all the ones I been listening to him play over, looks like a really really good practrice tool. IC.
Finally a track where the guy isn't just running endlessly through his scales like a high school kid on crack, and it ends in mid-holyshit, after only 1:18. More, please, of the bluesy slide--er, side of Guthrie Govan
It's a packet of rizla put under the strings so it's easier to play slide guitar. He does this because his guitar has pretty low action, and to get a decent 'Slide' tone you need higher string action so the notes ring out.
the main reason is definitely to raise the strings action for slide playing. when he wants to dampen the strings he uses something else as you may see in some of his vids where he is doing crazy tapping stuff. That said, it also does dampen the strings.. just not as the primary purpose
the only thing i could figure is that its like a capo that holds the E chord so he dosnt have to retune it.... but thats a guess and now that you mention it, it looks like a heath bar lol!
@bluesjamtracks i've been trying to figure out what it was for a long time.. i guess i'll have to look like a stoner again.. thought those days were over :D
Officially my favorite guitarist ever. I've heard people that come close, but Guthrie made that guitar belt out notes like Aretha Franklin. Amamzing...
Derek Trucks does it often when playing slide. Say we're playing in A, you put your slide on the root note, 5th fret of the E string. Theh with your picking hand, put you finger on top of the 17 fret (which would be and octave above the fret where the slide should be resting) and pick it, which creates a harmonic. There are other ways, which are mostly accidental, but when used right can sound great.
I agree,thats what it looks like to me.Question is what cant Guthrie do?Wish there were more than 1:17 on this one,Id like to see more slide techniques from Govan.I am sure this is just the tip of the iceburg of what he can do with one.
LOL,I hear ya,I bought all of these tracks also and man they are great.I like them better than alot of my backing tracks because alot of the sound like a mechanical loop more than a backing track.These are a great quality and great priced piece of practice gear IMO,Good to rap with ya guy,peace..
yeah definatly, I mean for the amount of use you're going to get out of them, not to mention how much they improve you're improvising :)
Although I can just imagine Guthrie walking into the 'bluesjamtracks' studio with a hangover, picking up a guitar and slamming these out, the guy needs no effort to do these insane solos. what an amazing album also. =D
Yeah,I bet the Guys at BJT line up to watch him lay it down to.Ive been a Vai,Satch,Petrucci fan bigtime over the last 20 yrs and Vai is my fav guitarist.But ive got to admit what I can clearly see Govans improv is light years better than Vai's.And because he mixes up so many styles so fluently he is just doing things way beyond anything Vai,Satch,Petrucci have been doing IMO anyway.Cant wait for the new C.D.
I really do love Vai,but Govans fluidity and phrasing nomatter what he is playing is second to none.I specially like when he goes into those long diminished runs he does with the minor taps and slides at the turn arounds are simply insane.That is just impressive stuff as smooth as Guthrie does it.
Ron Thal has some tastey diminished chops as well.Anyone can do a simple pentatonic patterns but the way Ron and Guthrie sequence these runs is genius.Lucky times we are living in to have such variety of talent out there.
Actually, you are exactly right. The answer is PRACTICE. Now, granted, GG has a hell of a lot of talent, but I absolutely guarantee you that he has spent YEARS living, breathing, eating, drinking, and sleeping with his guitar. You don't get this good without that, no matter how much talent you may have.
Was I referring to the point of technical abilities in one? No, I wasn't. I was simply referring to the matter of Johnny's style. And when talking about leagues, I don't give a flying jesus about his technical abilities if there is no art in the plain performance. Art is a very discussable conception, and cannot be judged as a quality work or as an piece of prosaic trash by mattering the simplicity or hardness of the execution.
Another typical Tim Halcomb day. Still cant get boner no matter how hard I try. Got video of Pat Martino playing Oleo, That might dod it. Logged into YouTube. Guthries channel again. Posted 'Great playing Tim you are truly amazing'. Signed in as drezel and posted 'You sure are the best Tim :-)' Posted some stuff on the Brits channels. I hate Brits. Tried to jerk off again but still no boner. I'll try Larry instead. Next door neighbor still banging on the wall when I play ...and still no boner.
Govan has perfected every style of playing. It takes most years to learn just one style or technic. Govan has mastered all of them at his young age. I don't think this guy sleeps or eats.
I actually thought this sounded more like Jeff Beck than the vid that was supposed to sound like Beck. Not sure if Beck would have used a slide, but that's the sound.
No, I still can't play like that. I don't have the hair for it. &:)

I don't understand this Spice Girls thing. Ginger Minge, Stick Insect, Hammer House of Horrors, Hockey Player, School Girl - totally lost. Now if you were talking about Kate Bush!!!!!
first of all, you spelt johnny winter wrong (and he doesnt own him, because johnny winter could eat him up and spit him out with his guitar skill) you also spelt derek trucks wrong (not trucker) who was also a child prodigy. Jimmy hendrix sucks, and he is overrated. Personally, I believe that Guthrie is better than Jimi Hendrix. Duane Allman was a genius...dont put him down. Study your music a bit more and than talk...

That's just a packet of cigarette rolling papers that he inserts to raise the action to make it easier to play slide.

I reckon if Ginger Spice walked into Guthrie's room at night he'd shit himself

If Ginger stumbled in to my room one night naked I might ...just the once!

I don't understand this Spice Girls thing. Ginger Minge, Stick Insect, Hammer House of Horrors, Hockey Player, School Girl - totally lost. Now if you were talking about Kate Bush!!!!!

Damn! Guthrie owns Johny Winter, Derek Trucker, and that chum Duane Allman. John McCarthy said it beter, " British music and musicians are the best!"
If was not for a British musician, Jimi Hendrix would not ever been discovered!

first of all, you spelt johnny winter wrong (and he doesnt own him, because johnny winter could eat him up and spit him out with his guitar skill) you also spelt derek trucks wrong (not trucker) who was also a child prodigy. Jimmy hendrix sucks, and he is overrated. Personally, I believe that Guthrie is better than Jimi Hendrix. Duane Allman was a genius...dont put him down. Study your music a bit more and than talk...
Thanks.
