      Again like I posted on my other Steve Vai video, thank you. I hope you saw that at 4:49 on this video. Please share this on your FaceBook page and everywhere else you can. And yes, there is MUCH more to come. I have a VERY cool shoot happening next week which you'll love.

      Ishibashi Music English TH-cam Channel Do you know where i could find this guitar mount? Didn't found it on go pro's website...

    • @JasonMcNamara
      @JasonMcNamara  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      I made this mount myself out of a bunch of GoPro parts. To make the same (or similar) you would need to purchase a few of the following sets...
      shop.gopro.com/mounts/replacement-parts/AGBAG-001.html#/start=1

    • @JasonMcNamara
      @JasonMcNamara  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh, and you'll also need a set of these...
      shop.gopro.com/mounts/removable-instrument-mounts/AMRAD-001.html#/start=1
      And on top of all that, you'll need to do what I've done and spend hours & hours of your time experimenting with what works for you. No one ever taught me how to do this, I just put in the time. I hope this helps.
      Cheers!

    This guy got to hold Steve's Evo!!! That's something that a 99% of the world won't be able to do

      Believe me Gi Cool, I know full well how lucky I was to be there in that moment to do that. I hope you saw the actual concert video of Answers that accompanies this.

    This is awesome!
    One of the highlights of my life was meeting Thomas and talking to him while he packed up Steve's pedal board, etc. on the first leg of this tour. Guitar tech legend!

      Hey Bhakti! Fancy seeing you here! Jason is a good buddy of mine. He sent me a beautiful Ibanez J-Custom RG8527Z last year.

    • @BHAKTIBROPHY
      @BHAKTIBROPHY 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Jason Becker? Steve and Jason are great friends of mine! They're the best!

    • @nbnguitar
      @nbnguitar 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      BHAKTI BROPHY I wish. Jason McNamara - he's the guy putting the GoPro onto Steve's guitar(s) and the person responsible for making these videos. Great chap and a wonderful person to purchase quality guitars from.

    • @BHAKTIBROPHY
      @BHAKTIBROPHY 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      ah! I don't know that Jason.
      I played guitar for 29 years and then my spinal diseases got the best of me and my neck broke. So I'm disabled.
      Steve dedicated his EXPERIENCE HENDRIX Show to me and my guitar playing (and drums, keys, etc. )
      I don't buy guitars anymore, but my dream of meeting Thomas since he was with Zappa came true last time Steve came to my town. They're the best. So supportive and kind, both Jason Becker and Steve.
      (Steve calls me Donna, BTW my birth name. )
      I'm not bragging either.
      Steve is the most humble, down to Earth, kind family man I've ever met.
      and Jason is a silly silly prodigy musician of the highest order.
      He sent me give of his new songs when I was in the hospital. Oh my God, Joshua... they're all symphonic masterpieces.
      Here's my email:
      Bhakti.Brophy@gmail.com
      Shoot me off an email.
      I'd like to introduce you to Jason.

    • @JasonMcNamara
      @JasonMcNamara  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you very much. I had never seen that angle before and just had the idea the morning before filming this. Thankfully Steve was willing to give it a try and as you can see he enjoyed it too.

    would like to know more about the uneven frets, the contacts of the fellow who makes them and the science, very interesting

    • @yallevereatenbeans2723
      @yallevereatenbeans2723 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      its called ''true temperament'' frets, it means the guitar is perfectly intonated no matter where you're playing. Before you wonder, no it does not affect bends.

    I loved when you did this with the Aristrocrats DVD!

    • @JasonMcNamara
      @JasonMcNamara  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks Peter. Now THAT means a hell of a lot to me. I'm really happy to hear that people are enjoying my work, especially when it's from outside of this channel. You may be interested to know that I did a shoot for Li-sa-X yesterday. There will be a video out from Sony Music Japan very soon for a song called Serendipity from last night's show.
      Cheers, Jason

    • @petrosmalik
      @petrosmalik 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Dude, the pleasure is mine!!! One of these days, the Aristocrats must get to doing another DVD and now hopefully produced by you in its entirety. I loved every second of it. Inspiring even to a passive guitar player like myself. It was like experiencing the music through an amplified kaleidoscope!

    • @JasonMcNamara

      DAMN!!!! That compliment practically took my breath away. Thank you so much. I hope you can tell them how you feel about it someday.

    • @petrosmalik
      @petrosmalik 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I agree, Kris. Still gives me goosebumps. You see, for those of us who come from less fortunate countries, who've until recently been students and who have families, travelling to gigs is an extremely rare treat. So far, I was unable to make it to any of GG's gigs in my vicinity. (In one instance, I even had to skip a concert where I had already paid for a ticket.) So having footage like this bring me to the show in a very special way. Keep up the good work, mate!

    I have always been a huge Steve Vai fan! Who makes that neck though? I have known about his microtonal frets but could never find who makes the ! Cant read it on the video! Also a huge Vernon fan! Have any footage of him Playing???

    • @JasonMcNamara
      @JasonMcNamara  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ibanez made the neck, however the fret work was done by someone in Sweden I believe. Thomas did tell me the guy's name, but I've totally forgotten. If it helps, this style of frets are called: True Temperament. Or at least I think that's what it's called. Good luck in your search. And as for Vernon, here you go: th-cam.com/video/2u8fEVT8mU8/w-d-xo.html

  • @drumavidcheckupz4792
    @drumavidcheckupz4792 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Did he changed the famous neck that matches the body pitch or did he change the fretboard. I see the frets are true temperament which are a newer than Evo. Man you get to have so much fun!!!
    Edit: Question answered at the end of the video.
    Next question, doesn't that screw up the guitar? That was what was supposed to make Evo unique.

    • @JasonMcNamara
      @JasonMcNamara  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Drumavid Checkupz (despingator): Believe me, it takes a LOT of effort to do these things. Yes it's fun, but it's a LOT of hard work.
      As for answers on the Guitar, you'd need to ask Steve or Thomas about that. I honestly have no idea.

      Hey, look at it these way. There are TONS of people working hard that don't get to do what they love. You look like you are and like every human wishes for that gives some meaning to what you do, right?
      Regarding the question about the neck I wish I could do that but I have no Idea how to do it and buying a ticket to a show doesn't provide that.

    • @JasonMcNamara
      @JasonMcNamara  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Drumavid Checkupz (despingator) : It doesn't. You are correct, but Steve often has some type of a VIP pass for sale at his shows if I'm not mistaken. I hope you can meet him some day to ask.

  • @geezberry8889

    why did steve ditch the tru temperment neck?

  • @patch1753
    @patch1753 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Can someone tell me the song at 0:55? :)

    • @JasonMcNamara
      @JasonMcNamara  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      That would be "The Crying Machine". If I'm not mistaken it's on the "Fire Garden" album.

    • @JasonMcNamara
      @JasonMcNamara  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thomas thought so. In the moment when that happened I wasn't sure what to say so I just left it alone.

  • @drumavidcheckupz4792

    Did you say the video wouldn't have been possible WITH Vernon's help? Don't you mean Without?

    • @JasonMcNamara
      @JasonMcNamara  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Drumavid Checkupz (despingator) It wouldn't have been possible WITHOUT Vernon's help. I'm not sure where I may have made that mistake, but if you know please tell me so I can correct that. Thank you.

      +Drumavid Checkupz (despingator) : HAHAHAHA!!!! That was a VERY silly mistake. Oh well. I'm not going to change that now. It's too late for that. Thankfully Vernon is a very dear friend of mine and I know he would simply laugh and say something like, "Of course he fucked up his thank you credit to me". Will I guess lucky you found the unintentional Easter Egg (pardon the pun this weekend).
