Thank you! 😎

Either you know me or that's a freaky coincidence... That's actually where I learned this song. I played drums with that band for a few years and played guitar on some of the tracks on that album. I also wrote "Salty", which is a song on that album and have it featured here on my channel as well.

@@RoadOutWest Super cool! No, I don't know you... I left a comment on the video for "Salty" the other day as I had no idea you wrote it. It's a banger! I just interviewed The Meteoroids for my fanzine. That issue will be released in December. Are you playing in a band now?

Thanks! I'll keep an eye out for that. They're all really good dudes and solid players. I'm not in any bands at the moment. Just trying to find time to play / record when I can these days!

Thanks! The recording techniques I use are very basic "101" practices I've learned over the years from forums, videos, trial/error, etc. I can't say I do anything unique or special in that regard and consider myself amateur at best. In other words, I'm not a professional audio engineer and really don't feel credible to teach or preach on the subject. What I can say is most of the credit goes to the tools. If you are able and can experiment with a lot of different type of gear (hands-on), that's been the best teacher in my experience. Even when I think I understand a piece of gear, one variable can change and then my whole perspective completely changes. I do list tools in the descriptions of my videos that I hope will help as a guide. Do you need that exact gear? Not at all! Unfortunately, even with all the information out there, I've learned the answers are never simple and vary widely based on the setup as a whole as well as individual preferences. I don't have a simple straight forward formula and just "Frankenstein" this stuff differently for each project until I get close to the sounds I have in mind. This applies to all the instruments I play and record. I still have a long way to go with drums... Anyways, hope this helps steer you in the right direction that's best for you.

@RoadOutWest thanks for taking the time and help mate, much appreciated. So I take it you have a good intitution too. I follow a similar observe-play-get more gear- trial and err. approach too but haven't gotten far. The twang especially in your reverend Horton video is amazing. You convinced me to buy a Tele there. Please keep sharing videos with us 😊 best

@@shining5695 No problem... if you're enjoying it, you never stop learning. The tele in the RHH video was my first one. Don't forget the importance of tone to the relation of the setup of the guitar (string type, height, etc)... One thing I learned from that video and guitar was the impact pickup height can have with relation to getting "twang".

Thanks for watching!

I'm not sure why I didn't see your comments in my feed... maybe the links? Posting for those that don't know; I wrote this while I was playing with The Meteoroids. I also went into the studio to play guitar on this track for the album. Personally, I like the guitar tone better on this video but the drums came out way better on the album version! Cheers!

Thanks!

I thought so too! Thanks for your support and comments!

Thanks! No on the flatwounds.

Thanks! Surf is a lot of fun to play compared to a lot of genres I play in. Hope you're still jammin'!

Thanks! Same here... I had only recently found it on this instrumental album with 190 songs. It definitely stood out.

I'd love to try one!

Thank you!

The Jazzmaster thanks you! ;)

It looks like a Fender American Professional Jazzmaster.... but I am not an expert.
