Steely Dan - Don't Take Me Alive (string snaps!)

Me playing Larry Carlton's solo at the beginning of Don't Take Me Alive by Steely Dan... except I don't finish it because one of the strings explodes.

Apologies for the over bend at the 13th fret on the B string!

good job. Nice geetar. Tele slim semi hollow??

[WindsOfCreation]

Thanks! Yeah the guitar is a '72 Thinline Tele reissue. It's only a mex fender though, they don't make them in the USA last time I checked. Shame, but it's more than good enough for me.

Beautiful tone and perfect decay. Love it when the signal is right at the threshold of breaking up.Excellent in my opinion.

[WindsOfCreation]

Thanks mate! The tone is from an old 1970s marshall 2144 combo, it's lovely. I really need to upload a video of the whole solo soon.
