Pulling out the H525 for a spin

[TalismanRich]

A couple of weeks ago, I was in the basement piddling around with the H525 and one thing led to another.  It started with an alternating G13 to F13 pattern,  then a descending Dm, Dm(maj7) and Dm7, and off it went.    I stitched together a drum track, laid down a guitar and vocal and a bass track, but wasn't happy with the bass, so I redid it several days ago.   It's an oldie from Billy Holiday.

Hope you enjoy it.

Sounds great, Rich.

Well that was a good groove, nice guitar tones, and nice vocal too!

No pictures?  H525 is one of those bucket list models for me.

Nicely done, Rich.  Really good vocals - your lead/first note/phrase just nails it.

[TalismanRich]

Thanks guys.

DB,  you've seen the 525 at PSP.    I stole if from LK years ago.  I'm sure he's glad that it's being used to play some of those fancy chords that he loves. ? 

The amp was my DSL401 on the clean channel, mic'd with a Sennheiser 935.

I enjoyed the song, well done Sir.

Very nice playing and singing.  H525's are something special.

Ah yes!  Add that to Flame Top Friday if you haven't already!!!

[Vanschoyck]

Nice!  That gives a sweet, full electric sound.  Looks great too. Kind of wish they still made those.

[koula901]

I didn't know you could sing!

[brentrocks]

Very nice Rich!!!

[golferwave]

Great playing and tone!  The BS&T version of that song was always in my 8 track player back in the day.

[Steiner]

My, my...  Salute.  Nice pipes.

[bolero]

That was awesome!

I've never heard the original version of that tune. There's a local jazz group that plays it a lot though.

[TalismanRich]

Thanks guys.

Bolero, while Billie's version is great,  one of my favorites is by Eva Cassidy's.  She had such a lovely voice.  Of course,  Diana Ross did a killer version in Lady Sings The Blues.

[bolero]

Thanks! I will check those out

[Gianluca]

very nice tone

[bsck1]

Rich, Awesome work, on all aspects.

Very nice guitar! I would consider that a “real” 525 since it has P90s in it, the only way to go on a guitar like that.
