Gary was/is still my favourite player. I saw him once with Thin Lizzy at the old Hammersmith Odeon in London in the late 70's. He was such a soulful player. You did a great job of this classic Mr Cordy. Well done 👍
Well played, Sir! Tastefully done! And that tone, I especially love how the fifth fret A rings out (at around 01:42) and how the harmonic content shifts as the note decays. So dynamic a tone that it has the least chance to sound the same twice yet compressed enough to sound even and big and creamy. Which could be the definition of an oxymoron. It goes to show that most of the words guitarists use to describe tone don't really mean anything! And Again, Masterfully done Sir!
Loving the Axis Sport! My number one guitar is an Axis Sport HSS in the same color. Traded out the black pickguard for a clear one to let the wood grain show through.
Got one of these guitars but with the extra piezo pickup under the tremolo. Now 23 years young. They are on a different planet to any big name guitars.
Everytime I hear a EBMM axis i am so glad i bought a few set's of those Custom wound Dimarzio Pu's in them! They were not cheap and you can only get them from a EBMM guitar but they are really unique. Hands down one of my all time favorite bridge pu's and the neck is really good as well. Hard to believe these were designed for Eddie Van Halen originally.
A great rendition Mr Cordy, your bends and vibrato are spot on. I was lucky enough to see Gary play in the 80s, and even Phil joined him for the encore. I was even luckier to be allowed to have a quick noodle on his white Charvel, it was a lovely guitar.
Great cover, and great intonation on those bends. That's something I'm working on. I like that the tone sounds a bit like a fuzz-type breakup to my ears. Pretty unique
Nice! I just searched “johnnathancordy music man” yesterday wondering if you had any videos playing a Petrucci model or something like that. Coincidence? I’ve been trying to figure out how to get usable single coil like sounds out of way too hot humbuckers for a while and I thought you might have covered something like that. Inspirational playing as always 👍
Wow, is that a 90’s Sport Axis? Have the same one with same setup any everything, but in a strange kind of infection green or whatever I can call it, haha. Yours look stunning! And they are great, great guitars!
That's some great playing and the tone is great Speaking about tone, do you have suggestions on how to create the same tone with the HX stomp ? thx cheers
Love this John! What a tone! May I ask where do you set you Global EQ low and high cuts on HX Stomp and Helix? I bought your presets a while back but I can't quite seem to match your tone. (And as we all know tone is definitely in the settings.. 😉)
Hi Johnnathan, I am a new subscriber, and loving your content! I have quesiton about your helix patches you have for sale? I have some confusion on which is which? what is the difference between your "General Helix Patches for 3 vs the patches marked for 5? Thanks
Those are the Custom wound Dimarzio's originally made for Eddie Van Halen. Even after EVH no longer endorsed the axis Guitar the pu's remained in the guitars. I bought a few set's used on Ebay(they are not cheap!) and have a set in my 2016 Stock trans red quilt Axis. Killer tones from these Dimarzio's!
@@johnnathancordy Yeah they are the stock Custom wound Dimarzio's. I would Know that tone anywhere! I use them myself in my Axis and even bought a few sets on ebay for my other guitars.
Ive been seeing other pod go users say that there is noticable tone suck and you should use a buffer before the input to counter this. Have you noticed anything of the sort with your unit?
@@johnnathancordy The relevant input impedance is the one of the unit you plug your guitar in. The amout of the resonant frequency of the pickup depends on it which is audible in the definition / prominence of the attack and overall upper midrange. The input impedance of the PodGo was reported by some to be lower 1MOhm which some percieve as "tone suck".
@@paulschlachter4313 right yeh I get that, but unless I was bypassing the Pod Go in front of something I wouldn't be in a situation where I'd be comparing the tone without a pod go with the tone of a bypassed Pod Go?
John, I don't want to support you on Patreon. I want to buy music that utilizes your excellent playing. As much as I appreciate the patches and gear reviews, your time should be spent on recording original music (or original versions of existing music) with musicians of your caliber. Talk about someone with a truckload of potential that needs to be channeled in the right direction!!! Wishing you all the best.
It's a nice idea Don, but the world of original music would be essentially impossible to support me at all at the level I'm at. TH-cam has done way more for my career than releasing original music ever did, and even when I do release original music now, it doesn't particularly matter, noone finds it!
@@johnnathancordy Okay, make it easier to find. I did some googling on your name and mainly found TH-cam instructional videos. I had to dig to find your bandcamp page with actual music for sale. Get your own website and sell your music on it. On all your TH-cam videos have that link and the bandcamp links AT THE TOP! Do some networking. Find other artists to collaborate with. Make links to buy your music easy to find. I can't tell you how many comments to your videos that I've read that all say "love your playing" -> you have a ready fan base/market to buy your music.

Nothing plays better than a Music Man guitar! Killer Gary tone and playing
Love it. Gary Moore is one of my all time favourites - both his blues stuff and his cheesy 80s rock and metal.
Out in the fields!!!!
@@johnnathancordy absolutely! And devil in her heart, wishing well, over the hills and far away etc etc!
Brilliant and articulate. Moore is smiling from above, sir! Well played.
Gary was/is still my favourite player. I saw him once with Thin Lizzy at the old Hammersmith Odeon in London in the late 70's. He was such a soulful player. You did a great job of this classic Mr Cordy. Well done 👍
Proof that the sound is in the player's hands. Great playing with just a POD go. Amazing!
Stellar playing as usual John! One of my all time fave blues songs... Gary would be proud
One of my all time favorite songs and you played it wonderfully. Thanks for posting.
Mine too. Gary was the best
The sound and the looks are pure honey! ❤ Got me one of these too.

Oh wow! That's so cool.
I never saw him live
@@johnnathancordy there's not many advantages to being older, but being able to have seen Gary is one of them 😀
Really love your playing John!
Stunningly played buddy!
Awesome playing, beautiful guitar!
Well done John.
Mate !!! This song has been in my head all week love it great rendition
Lovely playing and a great guitar.
Simply beautiful playing !
Great cover and awesome instrument !
amazing man. Your channel is underrated!
Some really good blues faces pulled there!
Love this. So tasteful
Great playing!!! You didn’t miss a note, well done
Love the guitar and that was a beautiful interpretation
Amazing! Love your tone!
One of my favorite guitars. Thanks man ✌
Wow this was good. You're a good guitarist.
I enjoyed this.
Killer playing
Oh thanks John!
Great cover, and great intonation on those bends. That's something I'm working on.
I like that the tone sounds a bit like a fuzz-type breakup to my ears. Pretty unique
Amazing! 🔥🔥🔥
Well done
SGTB the John Cordy version!!! Love it!!!
Amazing rendition, had to try and play along (albeit badly!) as your style is so fluid, I can't get my head around it! 🤩
Bravo!!
That was fantastic 👍
Awesome dude....awesome
Nice to hear your playing in a more minor -ish mood

I have never tried a Petrucci model - never had the chance, during my petrucci phase I did have an EBMM silhouette!
f-ckin awesome bro...loved it
Nice!
Wow, is that a 90’s Sport Axis? Have the same one with same setup any everything, but in a strange kind of infection green or whatever I can call it, haha. Yours look stunning! And they are great, great guitars!
I'm unsure of the year, but it belongs to my buddy Chris!
That's some great playing and the tone is great
Speaking about tone, do you have suggestions on how to create the same tone with the HX stomp ? thx
cheers
It's my Eric Lead preset!
Love this John! What a tone! May I ask where do you set you Global EQ low and high cuts on HX Stomp and Helix? I bought your presets a while back but I can't quite seem to match your tone. (And as we all know tone is definitely in the settings.. 😉)
Global eq off.
Shoot me an email if you want - this is Eric Lead and generally is pretty consistent from guitar to guitar I find

Music Man!
I’m old enough to remember when Gary Moore was a heavy metal guitarist
Sounds awesome, almost like the original version, very well done!
I could never touch Gary, but I did spend lots of time as a kid playing along with cassettes!
Saw the title and wondered if Music Man had branched out into the deodorant business lol.
What are the pickups on it though? Those aren’t the stock ones are they?
I think they are stock dimarzios?
Those are the Custom wound Dimarzio's originally made for Eddie Van Halen. Even after EVH no longer endorsed
the axis Guitar the pu's remained in the guitars. I bought a few set's used on Ebay(they are not cheap!) and have a
set in my 2016 Stock trans red quilt Axis. Killer tones from these Dimarzio's!
@@johnnathancordy Yeah they are the stock Custom wound Dimarzio's. I would Know that tone anywhere!
I use them myself in my Axis and even bought a few sets on ebay for my other guitars.
Eminent - WOW...
HOLD ME, JOHN
That was wonderful!
Now to go and turn off my global eq settings....
This is a great version. Gary would have loved it. My only issue is that you don't play the signature melody on the neck pickup 😡😂
How many guitars do you have Johnnathan? God damm it! :D
Not mine! Belongs to a friend!
😮
Ive been seeing other pod go users say that there is noticable tone suck and you should use a buffer before the input to counter this. Have you noticed anything of the sort with your unit?

Seems like it has tons of sustain with no fizz on the low strings.
I felt like it was sustaining really nicely too - probably what made me think of trying to play some Gary
love your playing and the musicman guitars,you should try the luke 3 i think you will like it
that kinda playing gets the girls
👍🏼🙂
Its like a Telecaster that had too many crisps
can you transcribe this out pllllleeeasssseeeee!!!! will defo pay for it
Bold of you to assume im thinking about my self image lol
I had the blues but my wife also got those in the divorce ahah AHHAHA no I don’t have a wife. People find it difficult to love me
Nice mate but a bit too polite !!!
