    I can’t watch your videos without aspiring to learn as much theory to be able to express myself on my instrument like you do. Your glorious tone (and the beautiful stereo trem when listening today) does t hurt either. Thank you for all you do.
    You space is bright and aspiring, too :)

    Great vibe as always. I think approximations of instruments on other instruments tend to make something more interesting than the original. Kind of like old string machines becoming desirable for their unique sound, rather than for just being a keyboard that sounds like a real string section. Thanks!

    Cool video, as always, Eric! Another trick to simulate a wurli piano is hitting the lower strings (with a pick) around the 12th fret, which gives the notes a similar attack

    Hi Eric - I'm lucky enough to have a '69 Wurlitzer 200, but sometimes I try to get that type of sound on a guitar, because a guitar makes you come up with completely different ideas, that I'd never come up with on the Wurlitzer.
    Then I might transfer that back onto the Wurlitzer.
    I've found that the best guitar for the job is a Gibson 335, on the neck pick up with the tone rolled most of the way down.
    Into a valve amp, it's possible to get more 'bell like' as well, which moves more towards a Rhodes.

  • @mattgilbert7347

    This lesson was like if Waylon Jennings got really spaced out. Also the finger thing from Inglorious bastards was when a German officer noticed they were spies because when they held up their fingers for drinks, they used their three fingers, instead of a thumb and two fingers like a German would do... or something like that.

      The high end epiphones are great we’ll playing instruments that sound great. The downfall of epiphones are their resale value compared to their Gibson counterparts. If you buy a new Gibson and decide to sell it you’ll get more of your money back compared to buying a new epiphone and selling it. I’d say find a used 59 epiphone in good shape. You’ll have a great guitar and be able to get your money back if you change your mind.

    The three finger gesture is from Inglorious Bastards when Michael Fassbender's character blows his cover in the bar scene by ordering three glasses of whiskey using his thumb, index, and middle finger (the British way?) instead of using his index middle and ring finger like a German would do.

    Cool video brother, but this doesn't sound anything like a Wurlitzer at all..not even close. Don't get me wrong.. It's a great sound, but it just sounds like a guitar, which is fine. 🙂
    Besides sounding like a guitar, the tremolo is all wrong, as stock Wurly tremolo's doesn't phase, or pan back & forth like that. Of course, there are drop-in, aftermarket solutions for those type of effects, for Wurlies, but that's a whole different subject for another day. I actually have a real Wurly, a '76 200a in avocado green (which I'm probably going to sell this year), so I'm just speaking from experience. It's a very distinct, unique sound, which isn't easy to emulate, even on a modern keyboard, let alone a guitar. I'm not hating or anything, just keeping it real. Much love, and thanks for all you do on here.. I really enjoy the videos! 🤘
