schundog Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 I had 5 guys come over yesterday late morning/early afternoon to jam. One of my buddies asked if I still had that "Les Paul Jr." I knew what he meant, but I said "No, but I DO have that Heritage 137...." He asked if he could play it, and of course I said yes. This is a phone video from two of the guys going back and forth soloing on "The White Room." The 137 through the Tweed Deluxe, the Partscaster through my Fender DRRI.
skydog52 Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Good stuff Brian. I'm glad you set him straight on what model it was! You hang with some great players.
mars_hall Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 That rhythm section sounds exceptionally tight and if you are fortunate enough to get people as these around you, you are destined to move right ahead on the path. Half the battle in the gelling of a band is getting that uncompromising bed of timed structure beneath you. It's either there or not there and it's definitely the game-changer. Once you know where the notes are, timing with dynamics in attack is everything. Nice work!! Now if that is a drum machine, WTF? ;p
fxdx99 Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Good stuff, Brian. That 137 thru the tweed D - that's the sound right there. Nice.

Yeah, Paul, I'm lucky to have some talented friends. The real trick is to invite enough guys over, hoping half of them don't have other obligations, and THEN hoping one of them is a drummer! This song, as well as Clapton's "Further On Up the Road," were led by the guy on the Strat. These two guys wore the drummer OUT by jamming over each song for nearly 10 minutes each.

Like a friggin' metronome, AND can sing harmonies while he's doing it. He also drummed and sang "I Could Not Ask For More" by Edwin McCain. He's the bald guy from my New Year's Eve Party pics. Good stuff, Brian. That 137 thru the tweed D - that's the sound right there. Nice. Pretty good combination, eh?! He had 3 pedals in front of him; a Dyna Comp, an old Boss Delay (a maroon box, not one of the DD series) and an overdrive pedal. I know for sure he didn't have the overdrive on; Not needed with this amp. Before he left, he acted like he hadn't seen my Baja Tele before, (he had) and asked to plug it in to the Deluxe. No Problem, I assured him. That was ANOTHER great pairing. Anybody happen to notice what amp was providing the OTHER great tone?! Yep, the Fender Mustang III.
TalismanRich Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 I can't think of too many better ways to spend a Saturday morning. Fun times, for sure!
