Dave here with another clip.This backing track is called Sad Melody. I came up with the lines you hear me playing. I used the Jackson Soloist for this because I wanted the use of the Floyd Rose bar for accents. I may do this track again using a Les Paul just for the hell of it. I was under the gun to get this up as i've been crazy at work and just to tired to play late at nite (which is when I record my clips)...I think I could have done it better given more time and relaxed circumstances...anyway for better or worse this my last clip for 2009...more to come in 2010~
Also check out my buddy Popstotexas here on YouTube...listen to his killer take on this backing track as a Tribute to the Great Les Paul who we sadly lost earlier this year....It's a killer!
Also, for those who wish to know...This is my setup...
I play through a Digitech 2120 guitar processor...It's powered by a 20 watt Mesa Boogie stereo power amp...
It all goes through 2 Marshall 4x12 cabinets in stereo...
I also sometimes use a Steve Vai Bad Horsie Wah Wah pedal...
I Play and love D'Addario XL guitar strings, the gauge is 10 through 46 (EXL110),,,
I also use and LOVE V-Picks guitar picks...I use the "small pointed Lite" model....
Filmed in Wilton Ct at Area 52...
Really nice! Love the up/down bit with the bar. Always entertaining to watch and learn. Thanks!
