Wow for a standard Made in Mexico tele you made that guitar sound goddamn beautiful amazing playing btw. Was considering on buying one of those but was a bit worried about sound, feel, etc. and this just convinced me to buy one now.
Great job :)) Really enjoyed the sound and your playing ! :) Have a nice one ! and lol this is 2013 I can't even imagine how good you are now :) hh :D ! Take care !
Mad props dude. May I ask, is this one take, or did you edit together different takes. If one take, you're crazy precise and clean. I didn't hear any errors. If edited, it's still amazing. I'm learning this song and any section, even if practiced in isolation, always has me missing a few notes or not hitting them cleanly.
The best way to learn any song is to start slow with a metronome and bring it up to speed gradually. Playing it slow helps to engrain the movements into your muscle memory, and then repetition will help you clean it up and master it. :) good luck!
+Luke DeMuro this is so true. When you've mastered any song, you'll say, "I can play this song faster"... It's all about practicing to make it sound clean, even if you gotta start practicing slow. great cover btw
If anyone wants to know the tone. It's similar to how Clapton get's his woman tone by rolling the pots and turning up the mid and the treble a bit. You have to mess with it.
Standard Mexican Telecaster, not sure the exact model off hand. I think they go for around 400 but you could probably find it cheaper used. Sounds great and played well when set up well. :) thank you!
love it! also, are you into pursuing tunes cooperations in Bandhub ;) I routinely can record classical guitar ;) You and I could get together at the website! It'll be insane!
I love playing with my Tele but when I was learning this riff, I had to pull out the 24 fret to get comfortable then I used my Tele. So in conclusion No….but if your like me and need the placebo effect to help you then Yes
A Fender, Marshall or Vox amp would probably be an ideal starting point. Some of this song, like the intro, is totally clean, and the rest shouldn't have too much more gain than that. A little compression might help. I used some reverb but CHON's tone is generally pretty dry.
Luke DeMuro Yeah, if you have a Line6 standard amp, try using just crunch with the gain on 3 or 2. That should do it. It's probably a little bit more crunchy than usualy but it works.
+Janosh Sullivan Parts like that are extremely difficult using a clean tone. Honestly, I just practiced it really hard and then used a lot of compression to even out the volume when tracking it. :P
+Luke DeMuro yeh dude I've been working on it non stop for the past week and I finally got it down for the most part! although some compression would help :P You did an AMAZING job with this cover though mad props to you. hopefully soon I'll have more than just the intro to show! thanks a lot for the reply, keep up the good work
Yes! I think it was "Marshall JMP Golub" uploaded by Marko on the Kemper Rig Exchange. I tweaked it a little but I think the tone was pretty CHON-ish by default.
