...cool. What are/is all the jazz on the top/left side of the body? -and your playing seems to be getting a bit of a personal style... Give us sumpin of your own -either solo or create a simple rhythum track and play off it so I (We) can hear YOU. -cheers
Don't really know what you mean by 'jazz on the top/left side of the body' :-)
Anyway, you're right my playing is kinda my own styl, I have developed over the years, nothing special - kinda old school & melodic playing.
What you see & hear in this video is just an improvisation - I never play the same solo twice :-) I don't think I'll ever be able to play this one again the same way and the same feeling again :-) And this is what I like - I never know how the thing is going to turn out :-)
To me - the solo is just an extension of the song - it has to be simple, melodic and memorable.
Most importantly, it is the expression of my feelings that I'm just having in that very moment, when recording a song. I try to follow the flow of the song, the rhythm and then I just 'shoot out' the lead whatever comes out of me :-)
This and all the other solos happened exactly the way I have described here.
I have since completely changed my playing style - use only my fingers.
So just a finger picking all the way :-) I have found out, that this way my playing is getting even more personal and discovered couple of interesting techniques that I can use now :-)
I feel I'm more close to the instrument now and can express myself much better.
I have to make some new videos to demonstrate this.
Thanks for your comments - I appreciate this a lot.
I have replaced the tone switch that I didn't use anyway with the coil tap switch - with this modification I can get wide array of tones from sprkling clean, nice crunch to a heavy gain. I upgraded the bridge position with Gibson Tony Iommi humbucker. What a great sound ! I have to post some new videos anyway.
I love how Steinberger has managed to cut the guitar down to just what it needs (which is pretty much the size of many small classical instruments), and yet still have an amazing tone and all (if not MORE) bells and whistles than most guitars already in guitar shops (not counting custom orders like those by Matt Bellamy, etc.). I'd love to get my hands on a GT-PRO Deluxe. :-)
@1devo6587 The tuners are behind the bridge, where the body cutout is. The original Stienbergers required *double ball* strings. The cool trick was that you bend chords in tune with the bar or change the tuning +/- a few steps instantly.
I want one of these but I cant live without my whammy bar, its like an extension to my arm, squeal piggy!

...Dude, how many Steinbergers do you have anyway?
popsaka1 6 months ago
@popsaka1
I have an original graphite composite Steinberger GL2T GR, that you can see in my other videos and this Hohner G2T - that's pretty much it.
I also own several other lovely guitars - but I must admit this Steiny and Hohner are my favourites :-)
Thanks for watching.

how do you tune that guitar?
