thanks for sharing pal. Really cool stuff. By the way we have the same exact guitar just with different color. and I am about to receive the best of george benson next week, so I am pretty excited just by seeing how much you've gotten out of it.
Hi, thanks for the comment... believe it or not, I prefer the amp EQ to be absolutely flat (with 80x you should already have good bass response). Most of the tone come from the neck pickup and of course my right hand technique.
If you want a similar sound I'd suggest using a small, rigid pick like the dunlop jazz III, and use small but strong alternate picking motion. Playing harder tends to get more tone out of the pickups
Very very good!! I've tried watching your video over and over, but can't quite catch the it all. Is there anyway you could post the sheet music or tab for me?
@keithmilbank loved th t tone, ive got the epi dot and a roland 80x, what eq setings and amp selection did you have.iam just starting on jazz and iam finding it hard to get a nice smooth tone with out sounding wooly!!
funny. nice Kramer. what kind and year? I got an 89 like 600 it think. and funny story. i learned a bunch of this song on it back in the day. I quit shortly after and just got back into learning almost 20 years later. Got a strat but i still have that kramer. the neck is broken but i'm gonna fix it and clean it up. good playing.
@dgwhite1972 haha oh yeah the one in the background... i was wondering what you were referring to you! Yes that's a mid 80's 300st with floyd rose trem, great neck, weighs a ton though
@dgwhite1972Yeah i need to get my Kramer back from my parent's house and fix it. I think gonna change the pickups. Cause the stock ones where cheap. should sound good. i'm lucky too cause i have one of the non-plywood versions too. great playing by the way. love that track. gotta relearn that one and maybe someday tackle Affirmation before i die.
