What you're hearing in my videos is my 2nd or 3rd attempt. I typically spend about 15 min on the song and 45 min on the tone. Why? Impatience I guess lol. I love chasing tone. I work long hours, with little time to hunker down and make a song sound perfect. In 2020, I decided to pick the guitar back up and have slowly gained a little traction. I do not claim to be the writer, performer or producer of any of these songs or any good at playing them LOL! I play by ear mostly and don't know notes or scales for the most part...that's the stuff I'm trying to learn again and that's typically why my solos suck (if i dont just stick to playing rythm)! My Equipment: I am using mostly EVH and Kramer "super strat"-style guitars. I'm plugged into a Scarlett 4i4 interface, running Bias FX 2 on my computer for my amp....running a line out to my dslr camera and USB back into my computer. My tones are molded and shaped by ear (as is most of my playing). Please "like and subscribe" :)
