Practise timing, It's very important in this track

[matboss72]

Yes of course, but you should know that LEAD guitar means that it's leading not being leaded by a backingtrack. That song is perfect when the other instruments follow the lead guitar and not the opposite as in this video. cheers.

mate iws wonderin wat gear u usin cause iv got an me50 nd isnt that great coud u tell me wat i could get 2 sound like dave

[matboss72]

How the fuck are you writing man?

[prometeus1972]

complimenti bel suono. do you have a black statocaster of david gilmor?

[matboss72]

Yeah, originally it was an american deluxe strat. Then I changed the neck for a maple neck like David's and I replace the pickguard from white to black.

Cheers

[tobymanero2]

yeah when i wrote that i didn't know alot things about syd. syd can be a genuis, but the PF of waters,gilmour,wright and manson was very better..

[fastfirenick]

man dont say that he is a music genuis

[MattCatt7]

@matboss72 actually, while this may be true, the rest of the band is also following a time signature, and so is David

[Abonanno24601]

screw the music, Love the Star Wars Stormtrooper helmet in the backround!

[brucecornell]

hi mat, what pick ups are on your strat ?

[GuitarCailuong]

@matboss72 your definition of "lead guitar" is completely wrong. Timing is important and all the instruments have to follow the time signature of the song. When I practice this song, I keep the metronome in the background because it's hard to keep up without the drum.

@matboss72 Hi Mat nice try and thanks for uploading. Getting the right bends and phrasing can be hard with David Gilmour much like Jeff Beck.

[rnrhc10]

Hi,

Despite the critics some people gave you, in my opinion you did a great job and you created the right atmosphere.

Greetingzzz

Rob

@matboss72 dead right. You have no idea how hard it was to get my keyboard player to stop rushing the start of this track. things speed up live as it is without that shit going on lol

Peace
