Mystery Train

[Whautum]

Hello! Have you got the backing track for it???? :D

[BoeckmannLudwig]

@Whautum

Sorry, no. My PC crashed a year ago and I`ve lost all my "Band in a box" files.

Martin

[Whautum]

@BoeckmannLudwig Wao thank you for the fast reply, what's band in a box??

[BoeckmannLudwig]

@Whautum

BIAB is a program for creating backing tracks. I created all my tracks with BIAB. You can find a lot of information on youtube and in the web.

Thanks

Martin

[Whautum]

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Thanks for your kind comment.

Martin

[bluwng]

Really kicking rendition, BTW your F-Holes don't really have holes..... how does that affect sound?

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Thanks for your kind comment. I think the F-holes don`t affect the sound that much.

Best regards

Martin

[Rickw1983]

Just when I think I'm getting somewhere with my Chet style guitar playing I find someone like you who plays his songs Perfectly and I'm knocked back into reality. Oh well some of us have the gift and some of us just don't I guess. I must say I also admire your guitar collection. Chet's spirit lives on.

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Thanks for your kind comment, buddy.

Martin

[halweston]

Wonderful and very inspiring playing, sir. Thank you for posting this video.

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Thank you, buddy.

Martin

[trikey52]

Sie sind eine schöne Entdeckung! Ich habe Chet Atkins, Jerry Reed, Buster B Jones, usw sehr gern. (Entschuldigen Sie bitte, mein dürftige Deutsch. Ich studiere es jetzt.)

[KZ4USA]

What do you use to create your background music. I see some use?

I see some people use Band In a Box.

Im picking up a new Gretsch 6120 CGP Chet Atkins Stereo Guitar and

what to get something for making background music to.

Im getting back into playing after been off for years.

I enjoy watching you play!

[BoeckmannLudwig]

6120 CGP - a very good choice! I use Band in a box. Thanks for watching and your kind comment.

Martin

[stratdelux09]

Smooth.....I hear a little J.J. Cale in there too. Yes?

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Thanks for your kind comment. It`s a Chet Atkins arrangement with some own ideas.

Martin

[villariaz1685]

Ok that TOP Nice Good

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Thanks for watching and your kind comment.

Martin

[chronis420]

Nice playing, good stuff.

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Thanks for your kind comment.

Martin

[carlolf]

Großartiges Spiel und ein toller Sound, der von der Gretsch rüberkommt. (Falls ihr mal in Berlin spielen solltet, bitte Bescheid sagen!)

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Vielen Dank für deinen netten Kommentar - freut mich.

Martin

[SuperCrackerjacks]

Your guitar is really cool. Reproduction of Chet´prototype. You can take really good sound from it. I don´t like so much those new shiny Gretches. Mine is 6120 1960. It´s exellent, and short scaled which i love. With killer Ray Buttsis.

[BoeckmannLudwig]

I think the two Paul Yandell created "new" Gretsches (the 6120 CGP and the 6122-1959 CG) are something special. Thanks for watching and commenting, buddy.

Martin

[SuperCrackerjacks]

Nice . Everything very smooth and pro.

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Thanks for your kind post.

Martin

[rnich35180]

I enjoy your playing! How do you like the CGP guitar? I am looking into getting one...

[BoeckmannLudwig]

The CGP is a great guitar! Thanks for your kind comment.

Martin

[Walkoffhomerun1]

Great playing and a great guitar sound! I notice you also have the Country Gentleman 1959. I also have this guitar (mine is called Nashville Classic on the plaque) Do you find the GCP has a more twangy, classic Gretsch sound that the Country Gent? Some times I think my COuntry Gent is too refined.

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Thanks for the kind post. Both guitars are great instruments. Because of the short scale the CGP has a better playability but I think the CG has a better tone.

Martin

[richiemabie]

Wow, who wrote this song ? I think I have heard the dead do it. Great playing big time

[BoeckmannLudwig]

It`s a Elvis-tune; Composers are Sam C. Phillips and Herman Parker Jr.. Thanks for watching and your kind comment.

Martin

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Vielen Dank, dass du vorbei geschaut hast. Ich freue mich sehr über deinen Kommentar.

Martin

[Keesfarida]

Hoi Martin thats outstanding my friend,is this frim Pat Kirtley ?

Martin there is a new clip of me Serenade in Blue & Moonlight Serenade ,its not Atkins style ,its Big Band in my uppie gr also to Bernd <Kees.

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Thanks, Kees. It`s basically a Chet-arrangement.

Keep up your amazing playing, my friend.

Best regards

Martin

[malteundbernd]

Hallo Martin

Wie immer : SUPER !! Auch Dein Sound ist einfach großartig. Wie bekommst Du den nur so perfekt hin?

Herzliche Grüße

Bernd

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Vielen Dank, Bernd. Der Sound ist sicher ganz weit von Perfektion entfernt. Ich betreibe so gut wie keinen Aufwand; Kabel in die Soundkarte des PC, ein bisschen Reverb u. Delay dazu u. das war`s auch schon. Die Begleittracks mache ich mit "Band in a box".

Gruß

Martin

[malteundbernd]

Hallo Martin

Also ich find´s schon ziemlich gut,was Du da machst. Aber mit Sicherheit stimmt der alte Spruch : Der Sound kommt aus den Fingern !!

Grüße

Bernd

[buniluvr]

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Hallo Friedel,

hinter dieser Nummer verbirgt sich einfach nur der Wunsch, noch einmal (wie Elvis) die Haare nach hinten kämmen zu können. Vielen Dank für deinen netten Kommentar.

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Hello Chris,

thanks for your kind feedback. I use "Band in a box" 2009 Ultra with "realtracks". It´s a very easy program to make your own backing tracks. Hope it helps.

Best regards

Martin

[BocaFriend]

Martin, with 'German engineering' it may be a mystery train, but it will run on time, that's for sure!

I was beginning to tire from e-mail exertions (poor baby) and this awesome Vitamin C boost, played loud through headphones is just the jolt I needed! Hugs and round-trip fares, ~Terry

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Hello Terry,

it`s always good to hear from you and read your kind comments - thanks so much.

All the best

Martin

[2xVitamR]

Man merkt richtig, daß dir diese neue Gitarre größtes Vergnügen bereitet. Das hört sich so gut an, ich glaube, Onkel Chet schaut herunter und klatscht sich auch vor Vergnügen auf die Schenkel.

Klasse, Martin

Liebe Grüße

Michael

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Vielen Dank, Michael. So`ne neue Klampfe ist das wahre Vergnügen, da hast du Recht.
