Windmill

I'm just putting this up to demonstrate to someone the sort of speed of windmill you can do without running too much risk of injury, it's a pretty pointless vid but I have to upload it somewhere to show them

I've got to know, do you actually have one of Pete's 70's Les Pauls or did you just put the #2 on yours? Are those mini-humbucks? They are the best in my opinion.

sadly it's not one of pete's, just a les paul deluxe like the model pete played with a sticker added by me, it has mini humbuckers yeah. I do like them quite a lot.

Gah! I can't my windmill right. What do you do for yours?

[MrModDog]

you have to swing your arm around then contact the strings on the guitar neck, not over the body (sort of about the 10th fret) also keep your arm away from the guitar and as you come around to the strings then you bring your hand close the the strings sort of like you're punching the neck. Just watch your fingernails!

I now have a few more up too

Pete Townshend always told how he lost so many finger nails throughout the years from windmilling. How long did it take you to try this until you got it right?

How about a whole song?
