yoslate Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 The Wednesday night jam.... John Olsen on harp, with Little Walter's Fast Large One.
Genericmusic Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 I really dig that rhythm style. Nice chops.
pegleg32 Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 Rob, you lay down some great rhythm licks. I also liked Toots 5.
JackBaruth Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 Yeah, talk about playing the tasteful amount. In that circumstances I would have cranked up the FuzzFace and silenced that harp yo!
Kuz Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 Glad to see the big Ol' Girl and getting played regular. Something REALLY looks special with you spanking that big ol' box....!!!!
Gitfiddler Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 Rob, what strings are you using on that fat butt gitfiddle? Whatever, she sure sounds sweet!
Kuz Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 Rob, what strings are you using on that fat butt gitfiddle? Whatever, she sure sounds sweet! I gave him a set of Thomastic George Benson Flat wound 12-53s. He finally listened to me and put them on the Super super. TI GB flatwounds are not your Grandpa's flatwounds, as you can hear they have plenty of quality highend with very little of the "thud" associated with flatwounds.
yoslate Posted December 17, 2012 Author Posted December 17, 2012 Heh.... What John (thanks again, John) said, Tim. They've taken a bit of getting used to. They feel quite substantial under my hand. And I'm a bender...which isn't happening here...and I have to remind myself of that before leaning into one. But they are tremendous for chord work. I used to play .011's, but it's been back to .010's for quite a while now. But for this style of music and playing, with that guitar, the period of adjustment (ongoing, I think) has been well worth it. The darker tones in the other vid, with the '57 Vibrolux, are very satisfying for me. In this vid, I'm through a blackface Deluxe reissue, which is different, but equally satisfying. The Infelds and the P-90's seem to work wonderfully well with both types of Fender amp. Now that i'm not at all "afraid" of that Big Girl, it's most satisfying to play! Oh, yeah, I should mention that feedback was a bit of an issue. A few yards of black felt, stuffed into each "F" hole pretty much too care of that. Affects acoustic tone a bit, but it is an electric guitar....
Gitfiddler Posted December 18, 2012 Posted December 18, 2012 Thanks for the string responses, John and Rob. I use TI BeBops on my P90'd 525 and love em. Since my girl is a bit more svelte bodied, I haven't stuffed anything inside of her. If I do, it will be multiple pairs of black lace nylons (sans garter!).
koula901 Posted December 21, 2012 Posted December 21, 2012 Nice comping, Rob. I don't believe I've seen you spank this big butt before.
chico Posted December 21, 2012 Posted December 21, 2012 real nice I love your comping Rob. wish there was a little more light on that guitar player couldn't see that axe he was holding so well..
Genericmusic Posted December 21, 2012 Posted December 21, 2012 I don't believe I've seen you spank this big butt before. No comment
