    I watch a lot of guitar based TH-cam clips and rarely comment. I'm over 60 and have been playing for over 50 years. You, young man have a beautiful, beautiful playing style and tone and are frickin' incredible. I wish you every success in your career. R.L.

      Robert Lyon Super work with his volume knob! There are many excellent players on YT. Only a few “get it”. I’m 62, and have been immersed in the “biz” for 50 yrs (almost)
      Now, set me up with that amp, and an early 60’s tele (rosewood board) and you’ve got MY dream rig!

    My favourite part of the jam beginning with the tasty bends at 1:00 to the growly upstrokes @ 1:12, pure tonal magic. I keep imagining what it would sound like in a live concert. Run out of room on the fretboard, no problem let’s move over to the string tree. Between the vintage 62 Strat and the custom Yamaha Chris has assembled a formidable arsenal to complement his tonal mastery.

  • @timwhite5562
    @timwhite5562 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    God, I love it the tone when you're continuing to play even as the the volume is decaying almost out. I've started incorporating it into my playing. I normally set my rig so that when my guitar volume is at 5-6, it's at a level where if you play at 10 all the time, you'd have down at 7-8. Then my 7-8(ish) is what would be 10 for other players.
    So when I'm using vibrato on a long note or double stop, then I slide it up another position until it's almost died out before i slide up again. I'll shake it right to the point where the volume is all but gone, then slowly dial the volume up as I'm still shaking the note.
    I've only been doing it for a couple weeks, but everyone who's heard my play or have played with ALL comment on it immediately. I love discovering things like that; nothing that really is all that unusual, but still because it isn't something that everyone does, it sounds so original. Of course that applies more to people who aren't guitarist.
