Don't you not get any enjoyment from playing with other people, the vibe of your band rocking, the atmosphere of the venue or even the musicianship of what you are playing?
Surely that's where the enjoyment comes from and the reason to play live.
This is on the wall at my son's guitar teachers studio. He's not quite sure what it is. Thinks it might be an old Tokai.
He started to remove the frets to turn it into a fretless but hasn't finished, that's why they're are no frets above the 12th.
Any ideas?
Cheers
How's that a problem?
We had a player who we didn't tell him the key or chords. Just sussed it with his ear. Sign of a good musician to me.
If you're playing originals and you aren't writing specific parts for your player I'd take that as an advantage.
My best mates a keyboard player. Fantastic.
He used to play Jump by Van halen with the keyboard behind his head. Mocking Rock guitar players 😄
Unfortunately he had to pack it all in as he contracted ME. Terrible shame. Could play anything.
In relation to 80's rock he reckoned 90% of the time all you have to do is hold down an E minor chord on a string sound 😄
Bloody hell, we already can't talk about religion and politics. Now we can't say 'No W@nkers!'
I guess Stewart Lee was right, we are the Stasi for the Angry Birds generation!
😄
I'll try and check the WVH album out. You could clearly tell he was talented on the last VH album.
I am a massive Roth era VH fanboy but I wouldn't want WVH album to sound like VH. It would be difficult for me it to anyway as EVH and DLR are one offs.
The closest I've had to a comment on tone was in Scotland. I was on tour in the band for a musical. I just DI'd as we played with cans and had our own personal mixers.
The sound guy at the venue was raving about the natural signal from my bass. I can't quite remember why now.
It was a passive 1996 Yamaha BBN5.
