for the acoustic intro, are you muting the "in-between" string when you strum, you know, when the two notes are separated by a string like the A and G strings? I always finger picked the intro for this reason and can't figure out how you are strumming it?

[shreddakj]

@Painkiller86 I'm only letting the strings that need to be sounding ring out, all the other strings are dampened by the tips/underside of my left hand fingers. The bass notes are palm muted with my right hand.

oh man i really Liked !

Nice , u have a ME-50 too.

that would be good the sound of an Ibanez 270 With Me-50?

[shreddakj]

Depends a LOT on the amp as well.

[rokku87]

how is that valveking overall for playing instrumental music like that... Im thinking of getting one for my js1000

[shreddakj]

I really like the valveking, and it sounds even better now that I've put in a Dimarzio Tonezone and a PAF pro into the guitar in this video.

I've heard from several people that they sound really great if you replace the valves and the speakers, which I intend on doing some day.

very nice =D.

[MXnecromaticGT]

dude you own face

[Painkiller86]

@shreddakj Awesome, thanks! I figured that's probably what was going on but it's too subtle to see in a video. Great playing! I hope you make more vids!

[guitarguy316]

Wow, nice job! I am trying to learn this song but am having trouble. I try to fingerpick this and its nice but when I try to pick it, it sounds sloppy?

[gkl5gkl5]

a bit stiff sometimes, other then that, great job man!

Fantastic cover of Circles Shreddakj. That is a difficult piece.

@shreddakj I tried a Valve King recently that was used but "new." The tubes were awful, lots of microphonics when you cranked it. I like the Peavey Sheffields alright but the Celestion V-30s simply work far better at high power. The Sheffields seem to mush out in the low end and get blurry in the high end. Ultimately the pickups do make a profound difference.

and btw you should check out and try some marc rizzo's solo stuff that guy is awesome you can check it out on my channel

[Ariiluvyou]

wow amazing cover what effects for the clean parts? reverb and chorus?

[budgleaf1]

New Blues by Satch that would be an awsome song to cover.
