I am tuned down a half step to E-Flat. The backing track is slowed by 5 percent.

To me, the E-Flat is easier for bends and gives a very nice tone. The slowing of the backing track by that small amount gives the song a bit more character.

  • Out of curiosity, what gear are you using for this? Awesome cover by the way, probably one of the best if not the best I've heard.

  • Guitars:

    1. Fender MiM Strat with David Gilmour pickups. I switched the Pearl pickguard with a Black one.

    Misc:

    1. PodXT

    Amps:

    1. Fender Blues JR. The one with only a Volume and Tone control.

    2. Fender Blues JR Tweed. This one has 3 tone controls and a reverb.

    3. Fender 15G, great practice amps. I have 2 of them for a stereo sound.

    Thanks for listening!

  • To fans of David Gilmour's, On An Island:

    I finally got the songbook and am now scanning it. I will have it available sometime this weekend for you to download.

  • where is the song book bro?? btw, awesome vids.. are u getting that lovely tone just from your xt or are u using any other stompboxes?

  • Been workin' alot, but I will do it soon. The tone comes from the pod and the Strat.

  • How come this video only got 250 views, it deservs like a million

  • Thanks! That  made my day!
