im not a musician but i appreciate it more than average...enough to where i currently run a decent Focal audio system in my vehicle(w a k2 18' sub and passive radiators.
but i've seen this video many times (sadly never heard on disc), i don't know shit about guitars, i know a martin is great but i dunno why. but to me it sounds right on that "shitty guitar" i'd like to hear it on something w more tone as well but to me this jus looks technically very difficult and he is def into it. impressive
i dont give a fuck what anyone says about you man....i saw a lot of people naysaying over the music you produce...i dig it man...you are truly an inspiration and i respect what you are doing holmes..keep it comin..i been playin for 12 years....and can honestly say...you are an amazing musician...props man....
so....almost genius?...genius level?...i think i will go with genius level..bad to the bone level?..bad to the intramuscular level?..i will go with bad to the bone level
@kerranz. That is funny stuff to notice. Wonder if that is a screwdriver...I think I like the other version better though. I really dig the accoustics.
Yeah0 OVATION? Yikes!! That is like having Michelangelo paint with a paint roller...However, it kind of works as a way of getting an odd, non-traditional, non-woody tone. I hate the tone, but the guy is a genius at what he does. I would rather hear it done on something with more TONE, Baby!!
@dmanfromm this is a really low quality recording in terms of sound quality...cant comment on the sound of any instrument. it sounds great if it was a nice HQ video imo..
All ovations sound like tin cans. I find their best purpose is accompaniment with another deeper sounding guitar. Maybe he likes it because of his style, fast!
And i thought i at least knew how to hold the guitar ...
Ummmm.... :O ... Who am I .. Where am I .. can any one take me back to the planet earth ... I feel I am surrounded with GODS .. I wanna kiss ur fingers.. U R GODDDDD .. U RRRR GODDDDDD!!
Erick, I like your music very much. Just bought your album on candyrat and I'm looking forward to listening to your songs! Keep on grooving like this! Greetings!
Hey simonpca ... maybe he knows something you don't know. I think Ovation guitars are awesome. Yes, there are better acoustics out there, but try playing one plugged in ...
what I love about this, is that it's so incredible haha. I have been practicing this song for months. I still have another section to learn, but he just makes it look so easy and smooth, and consistant. Harmonics every single time
wtf? this rules. why have i never heard of this dick? lol he makes me hate myself because I WISH i could play like that. Awesome job Erik. (sorry bout the whole callin ya dick thing up top!)
sounds like hell. looks/sounds like an ovation. if he played a real instrument like a stonebridge or a lowden or even a martin it wouldn't be so friggin twangy. great song but terrible instrument and recording.
You can tell its an ovation cause of the dumb back on the guitar. Why did Ovation even make that substance?? Feels like sharp rocks on your stomach. i completely agree that he needs a martin or stonebridge. I dunno if this style would be good on a lowden or not.
people like ovations because of the shape, the design, and also how it cuts through other instruments
sometimes you see people playing in gigs with acoustics and the sound just blends in and you dont hear it at all over all the other instruments.
ovations are known to cut through that noise and help the acoustic sound stand out more. it all depends on what sound you're going for. hes an artist, let him use his own tools.
Ovations don't help the acoustic sound stand out more, because ovations do not have an acoustic guitar sound. they are purely a box with strings and piezo pickups.
From the headstock i'd say that's an Ovation he's playing? Why aren't you playing something that is as good as you?! Seriously Dude.... completely flawless
