@@webbyenfield agreed

Hello, I have seen your content and am impressed with your Duane interpretation on keys with tone and phrasing. I agree that the distortion amount will have an effect on the knob placement.

@ appreciate that! I always enjoy seeing your stuff too it’s very inspiring

@@amajor7add9Thank you very much. I’d say the Stonybrook tone is my favorite Duane tone. His phrasing in late 1971 is nothing short of genius. One of the most emotive players of all time. It’s fun to improvise with his phrasing mindset and start playing your own solos with that

@ dickeys too! I feel both sound a little more overdriven than show? Some people speculate due to the audio quality

@ Agreed. Dickeys brightness compliments Duane’s darkness beautifully. I would say that the audio quality muffles the sound quite a bit, the tone’s probably much more pronounced and defined in reality. I do notice that both Dickey and Duane got a bit more distortion in late 71 when compared with some audio in 1970 and even the Fillmore week in March 71

Would love to hear it

@ so I have 2 amps, the PRS that I told you about and I also have a Mason Dixon 15 watt which just a Marshall clone but it has the EL84 tubes. Both amps have the same speaker setup. I finally got that mid honk with the Mason Dixon but I have to turn it up extremely loud. I’m gonna do the PRS next and I’ll record both so you can listen to them.

@@deltajukejoint9156 Sounds great. Looking forward to hearing these

@@XxSkydog71xX what’s the easiest way to get you the videos? They will only be phone videos. I don’t have any of my recording stuff set up.

@@deltajukejoint9156you could upload them to TH-cam and comment the link in this comment section if that works with you or I could just go to your TH-cam channel and watch there

@@jim-d6v Thanks Jim

As far as transcribing, I have just been listening and translating onto the guitar without writing or tabs. Then I like to improvise with similar themes and motifs from the different versions. All I can recommend is to listen intently to the playing habits and themes of any player

@@OldschoolCasey Thank you and Happy New Year!

@@johnhoyt9181 Indeed! Happy New Year.

Thank you. Same to You

@@deltajukejoint9156 thanks man. I got the mids at maximum and treble 3/4 and bass 1/3. I also use the eq pedal to further articulate the section of mids I want heard more.

@@XxSkydog71xX I was actually playing this one today except it was show 3. One of the few Duane solos I can actually play. I still haven’t got the honk exactly right on my amp but it’s close. I could probably get it perfect if I was willing to blow my ears out lol. I always have my highs too sharp or clean I think.

@ that’s the thing with Duane’s tone is that the high end is there but it’s not like dickeys high end which was really screaming. Duane’s sound was more of a lower screaming, growling tone if that makes sense. The honk is around 800-1k Hz I think

@@deltajukejoint9156 what amp do you play through?

@@XxSkydog71xX I have a 30 watt PRS Hxda and it’s run into a a 2x12 cab with a celestion pulsonic greenback and a cv er123. I really wish I had the 50 watt though.

Thank you and I love bending on acoustic

Thank you for watching!

Thank you and you’re very welcome. I love to record

And thank you for watching!

@@maraul334 yes

@XxSkydog71xX thanks!!! Fabulous playing btw!!!!!

Definitely! Love the Pazant Bros

@@bluestonic I get better tones from the black star. The Marshall is the best overall but for small amps, the Blackstar wins easy. Pair with EQ and it’s all that I need in a rig

@ Great to know! You always seem to get incredible tone no matter what you play through. What EQ pedal do you use? 10 band to boost 1-4k? Still using the peacock OD with the EQ?

@@bluestonicthank you! I use an MXR ten band and boost 1k to 2k. I like that tighter spread and it’s with reduced shrill frequencies. I have been using that with the peacock pedal running into the clean channel of the blackstar in the front end. It works really well with the clean channel and I can still get those chimey cleans when I roll off the volume knobs on the guitar.

@@brianmcdermott281 eBay. Thanks!

Thanks so much! I used a Marshall origin 50 watt head and a 2x12 cab with a Weber Chicago speaker and a Scumback H55 speaker. Now I use other speakers and amps in addition to these but this is still the closest tone I can get without having Duane’s exact gear.

@@XxSkydog71xX Thank you. I'm gonna monkey with my Spark 40 amp to see if I can replicate. That sharp "quack" tone in this solo is so unique it's hard to replicate.

@ I have a spark go or whatever the smallest one is, and I can get this tone on that as well. You have to boost the 1k midrange to get that midrange honk. Some Les Pauls honk more than others as well

@@XxSkydog71xX Oh awesome... if you know what amps/pedals you used with that lemme know. They're all the same. Thanks!

@ the JM45 amp with an eq pedal boost mids

Don’t have exact measurements but it’s high enough to make fretted playing a bit awkward

@ thanks! i love your cover of layla

@@makirim Thank you. That was a doozy and took me two hours of takes. Duane did it in two takes. That alone separates Duane from mere underlings like me 😂

Thank you

@@XxSkydog71xX Anytime, bro, anytime!!

@@3John16 Thank you very much. I appreciate your kind words. It’s a great path to be on. I was playing through a 1x12 cab with a Weber Speakers D120 clone. It’s nearly on the money after it’s broken in. Thank you again.

​Sorry I should read your information on the video. I ordered a Weber Duane clone years ago cant remember the model when I was starting my tone chasing but it was too ice picky at volume. I like this tone quite a bit. I still prefer the CV but probably because I spent so much time and money finding them. All the best brother, the road goes on!

@@3John16 I initially thought it was a bit harsh as well, and the break in period was quite long in my opinion as well. Now it seems to have been tamed pleasantly. I also have a Weber CV123 that is similar (more mids I’d say) that I use as well. I’d love to hear that ER123 you have.

@@XxSkydog71xX Ah that makes sense, I was probably too impatient on the break in. I'll now be spending some time learning some of your live solos esp the 9/16 and 10/15 covers. I have all of the available 69-71 bootlegs and if you find the 5/2/70 Swarthmore College show you HAVE to listen to it. Duane and Berry play like I've never heard them! Take care friend.

Here's Berrys Oh Pretty Woman from that show. th-cam.com/video/MGOF2izlwjE/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared

@@JasonsGuitarJams yea it was too loud for the other scarlet mic I have

Thanks!

Thank you, she is my #1 🥹

I like this! Glad you enjoyed it. 😁

@XxSkydog71xX Borrowed from Robert Frost's classic Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening.

@@jimsliverootsculturemusic woods on a snowy evening - lovely

Whose woods these are I think I know. His house is in the village though; He will not see me stopping here To watch his woods fill up with snow. My little horse must think it queer To stop without a farmhouse near Between the woods and frozen lake The darkest evening of the year. He gives his harness bells a shake To ask if there is some mistake. The only other sound's the sweep Of easy wind and downy flake. The woods are lovely, dark and deep, But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep.

@Dad-Gad Thank you and same to you
