I love this time of year even if we didn't have a hot summer. The days are now getting shorter and cooler with a bit of rain to green things up again. You can come indoors early and sit on the couch, watch some TV and play guitar and not feel as though you should be out doing something "more productive".
I've got a new guitar from my guy at work for a week or so just in time for #straturday. It's very similar to my strat, same vintage and has a sunburst paint job. It has a maple neck which I really like along with lace sensor pickups in the middle and neck with the bridge holding some kind of Semour Duncan thingy for the bridge. The nut on this is also different to mine with a funny looking metal contraption I think to stop the strings bunching up if you use the whammy bar a lot.
It was recorded using Reaper and effects using Bias-Fx with the following setup. It's a preset from Positive Grid - Tone Cloud called 'SRV Double Trouble'. I've made a couple of teaks, but can't remember what they were. The patch was pretty good as it was.
Dodgy backing track was from https://remixpacks.ru/ which sounds like the original. I don't know where they get these from and too scared to ask.
Stay safe people and enjoy the rest of the weekend.
Awesome, love that song. You played it perfectly on that amazing strat plus. Do you notice that the bends are slightly easier on the strat plus because of the ball bearing nut?
I did notice that and hadn't thought that was the reason. I just assumed that it was a lighter gauge string or something, but that makes sense that there is more give with the ball bearing nut.
Yeah compared to my other strat style guitars with graphtech or bone nuts the bends are a bit more springy with this rolling nut. Took me a while to get used to but now I really love how you can bend a note slightly easier. I even did a test making sure the same gauge strings were on both guitars.
Oh yeah! Sounding great. Definitely sounds like Stevie at the end. RIP.
I've heard that Russians can be a bit more relaxed about copyright.

Great play! Loved it
The stems (most of the site) come from RockBand. This is from RockBand 2 (that's where the RB2 stands for).
GH is from Guitar Hero.
I've seen some fun stems on there. Thanks for the website. I was going to do a few of those, but then I decided to make a deep cut in the top of my left middle finger with a sharp knife so now I can't play since it hurts like hell ...
Buggar! Hope it's not too bad and heals. Don't want to turn into a Django. 😁
What were you going to play? I can't choose and keep looking at really bad 80s stuff. Any suggestions?
