Really appreciate the feedback! I think I can remember what I was playing here but I'll review back also!!

@@staleyexplores -p.s. just click on the blue time-stamps, it'll take ya there... Cheers!

That’s The song So Damn Lucky by Dave Matthew’s Band, one of my favorites of his

@@staleyexplores - Nice! Completely different, yet perhaps you hear some Doobie Brothers - Listen To The Music, too? 😄

@@staleyexplores - Could be, so damn lucky, listening to the music 😃☮

Just playing random stuff you know whatever hits me in the moment..😁🤙🎸

When I was editing and listened back I thought I actually liked the new saddle tone better too which was much different than I felt when I was playing it, recording myself playimg really opens my eyes and I usually sound way better than I think I do, even though I know I need to practice more so this is an attempt at that by making the guitar play a little easier 😎☃️🎸

@@staleyexplores - Something similar with pianos, back when... You can play the same thing, on any of them - and a pro, can make them all sing... but there's a point with any of them, that the tone and feel, pulls it out of you, even if you didn't know it was in you, to do... a nice instrument, will pull more out of me, then I think I ever had... Cheers-

@@alexandremocan140 I was shocked to be real honest how nice this instrument is, I actually liked the black top too, the guitar just fit my body like a glove

@@markaoslo5653 agreed! Wish it wasn’t so dang expensive. I have a solution to the audio situation fyi!!!

Thanks for your feedback, hope you are well

I'm on Instagram at Staley.explores direct message me from there if you want. Yeah new phone problems learning what it can handle and also what it can't! I need to just take my portacapture in there. Yeah it seems I and others really appreciate the dreadnaught tone that smaller body has a unique tone and use imho. Cheers and hope you are well friend!

I'm sure he'd love getting to meet you one day!!

Thanks bud thankful for friends such as yourself. Hope u r well!!

So much more there there...😎🤙🎸

It's the box shape and bracing imho, Gibson's also sound fabulous but different and not my favorite on all honesty

@@staleyexplores cool

Most definitely!!

I usually play clean tones but this thing can do both equally well imho

@@richthetrashpicker-upper5244 I didn’t know that, that’s really awesome! Roosevelt Elk are quite the gem in a very unique place where nature still feels raw. For me it’s a healing place.

Spoon creek falls is correct, in the summer the falls is much less flow and is absolutely beautiful especially when the sun gets down in there a bit. I should have added a picture of it from when we went in 2019. I don't have the capacity to do all the discord stuff either. All good and I hope you are well friend!

The Olympics are definitely my favorite place to go! Ty for watching the video of my adventure!!

No worries and happy to see ya back!! Appreciate the feedback, drop d tuning really can bring out the soulful vibes imho. Hope you are doing well friend!

@ so far so good. Thank you.

@@StepByStepMusic definitely a good summer option although the falls isn't anywhere near this big due to all the rain yesterday. It was storming but I didn't see a soul hardly all day.

thx friend dropping me a comment really helps the channel and encourages me, kind regards

@@staleyexplores no problem brother

Hi, hope this finds you well, thanks for dropping me a comment, means a lot!

Appreciate that! Thanks for listening and the comment!!

Yeah the radio still works and sounds so good even though the speakers I'm sure aren't in the best of shape. I may just remove the record player bc I have an external one. Use that compartment for storage of CDs or my vinyl collection that is ever growing at this point

@@pnwpaths2925 yeah I need to use the tripod!

It's been a dream for a long long time just building knowledge and the tools and resources now to be able to do that! 🙏 Hope u r doing well my friend.

I'll have to look at it in a bit and get back to you on this. I know the pickguard did seem to fit a bit differently than my warmoth tele that I built. Give me a few hours and I'll post back here.

@backandfour I am posting a short right now in hopes that I determined the difference in the two similar guitars but basically the Harley Benton body is larger in every way, longer and wider...I'll link the short here also in a minute.

@@alexanderatwood8656 thanks dude!

Thanks dude! It's fun and I feel I can learn lessons that apply elsewhere! This is my video journal where I can always look back and see what I was doing. It helps me realize that I'm not wasting time despite my mind telling me otherwise..

The long form video that I'm making from this will show much more detail of the work, I probably have 1.5 hrs of footage at this point and I like to show as much as possible even if the video is super long! Thanks for the feedback you rock!!

I got the fretboard glued on but I noticed I made one mistake but I think I can recover from that pretty easily 😎

@@staleyexplores Nice 😎

Everytime I listen to this song I get more and more hooked on the just everything that's right in this few minutes and hate this song isn't 30+ minutes long, ty for recommending this bc it was not on my radar. So much more to learn in this too. ❤️💯🎸😎

@@staleyexplores that is so awesome to hear. I've had the privilege of introducing this song to many people, the response has always been a good one. For some reason I particularly love to listen to it when the evenings start getting colder, it has some kind of haunting, autumnal feel. I know that's weird lol. I'll stop now 😂😂 ❤

@@1970boobear your perspective is appreciated thanks for sharing that with me

Really appreciate the feedback and you watching the short 😊

I've been to several of his shows at the gorge and it's always a good time imho!

@@staleyexplores I hear that once you go to one, it makes you huge fan 😂. Unfortunately, they do it the same weekend as PAX. So it just never worked out. Although I didn’t even go to PAX this year…

I've listened to dmb since 1995 or earlier so to get to see him at the gorge every year knowing he lives in Seattle is pretty neat for me. In addition learning his style of guitar for me is about the most fun I can have while playing this song was my first really difficult song to attempt to learn. So I always gravitate to his playing his sound and his band bc they are all superstars especially Carter the drummer.

@@staleyexplores you go every year?! Do you guys camp or just go for one day?

@@pnwpaths2925 no, not every year, we see a lot of other bands too and Dave sporadically. We generally go for one show usually and I’ve never camped, not much for that kind of thing. We might get a bnb in eburg for multiple phish shows but that’s about as much as we do for multiple shows. Phish, widespread panic, string cheese incident, I’m way more excited about jam bands live, latest craze is the band goose. We went to red rocks and the gorge which imho are the premiere venues in the US. Honestly we don’t have a ton of money so we try to be smart. If money was unlimited I’d rent a place and go see all his shows and climb at Frenchman coulee in the day if my energy was that high!

Dave Matthews being from South Africa if my memory serves me well has all kinds of global music influences, excellent ear, I hadn't heard that term and had to look it up!

Such a fun song to hear and play!! Love it so much also!!!!!!❤

“Open up my head and let me out”

Well I got the title wrong, again! I should probably look this stuff up before posting, I’m bad with lyrics and song names….🤪

@@staleyexplores aaaaah So Much to Say!! Lol 😍

@@staleyexplores no stress. I'm the one who initially typed out an entire lyric from the wrong song so... 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I'm packing to go over to eastern WA but not sure if I'll have the energy to do it or not, got some housework going on and I don't wanna leave unless we have an actual front door again. Right now it's a temp plywood situation
