Tube amps are an instrument in their own right. You really have to know how to handle them. When they are at optimal level, they respond like nothing else. Good video!
Also Steve, have a good weekend. Regarding volume, we all know that it is addictive, the more you upload, the more you want!!!!. Regarding the volume, is it just a perception of the ear or does it really sound the same at 50% as at 5% and only our brain perceives the differences in range???
Hey thanks for commenting. With tube amps you'll notice more difference because, as I'm sure you know, the more we turn up the volume the more natural saturation we'll get from the tubes. Also some frequencies will stand out more than others. The amp output and the room can also make a big difference. The sound will be different also depending on the amount of people attending a gig and where you stand in relation to the amp. There are a lot of factors that can modify the tone. As far as the difference between a 5% vol vs a 50% volume you will get some frequencies that stand out more. On lower volumes we get more mid freq and at higher volumes we get more bass and high freq. Hope this helps and answers your question. 🙂
Hi. The bouncing exercise is helpful to build muscle memory so that the fingers "learn" the chord shapes. Set the fingers on the fretboard making the chord shape you want to learn and then just release the pressure and lift the fingers just a bit. Try to keep the chord shape while the fingers are lifted and then bring them back down. Try with an easy chord like Em where you only need 2 fingers and they move on to more difficult chords. You don't have to lift the fingers too high and always try to keep the chord shape when the fingers are lifted. Let me know how this is working out for you. Also keep in mind that at the beginning it can be a bit frustrating but practice and consistency are really the key. It's just something that takes some time. Also make sure your guitar is comfortable to play and that the strings are not too high on the fretboard. Hope this helps and keep up the good work! 🙂
