Carlos Santana - El Farol (cover; Mesa Boogie Studio .22+)

Finally, a better take. Some minor mistakes in timing and dynamics, but let's just call it "distinctive phrasing" :D :D :D

I'm using an Epiphone Les Paul w/ Ibanez Super58 pickups, switch set to middle (treble volume slightly rolled off), going to a Zingy Drive (Zendrive clone, just to add slight overdrive and a mid-boost), a T-Rex Replica and finally into a Mesa Boogie Studio .22+ (w/ Eminence Red Fang speaker), clean channel with active EQ bumping the mids up a bit.

@TheSkywalker1995 Here ya go - google "el farol backing track" and click on the first search result (on guitarbackingtrack dotcom site). I think it's the same one. Have fun learning the song!

[robbisan]

Perfect. This is the best version of El Farol in Youtube

[leozingy]

@robbisan Thank you, robbisan! Coming from you, this means a lot! Your version of Moonflower (and that lovely Yamaha SG) motivated me to start learning that Santana instrumental as well. Glad you like it!

Love super 58's. Always wondered what they would sound like in a Lester, and they sound goood! Red Fangs are cool too, makes that boogie sweet.
