    My 67 year old hands are going to have to accept the fact that 75% speed is all that's available, but these licks are so melodic they hold up at any speed. Thanks for your work on this!

      @@neastguy Hm, hard to say.. It didn't take long when I recorded it but that's because I've practiced stuff like for a long time! But yeah, take it measure by measure and try to be as relaxed as possible so you don't unwanted tension in the body. So try to use the least amount of pressure you can when you fret a note and always try to play with your fingertips. Those things are really important to me! Hope it helps!

    I tried Lick #2, it seems there is an inaccurancy to the TAB. Towards the end of the lick I omitted the 3 and 0 before the final pulloff. I tried squeezing the 3 and 0 notes in there but it appears the notes extend the length a bit over, so landing on the A is impossible. If 3 and 0 are omitted you land exactly on the A just like in the video. What are your thoughts on this Erik? Great lessons

    how important would you say is the Neural DSP for getting this kind of country tone when recording? Were you ever able to achieve something similar just using the stock plugins from your daw or the Neural DSP makes a huge difference?

    on these styles, the string gauge is important. What gauge is he using? I'm currently playing 11s, which are fine for Blues and a bit weak for straight ahead jazz. They seem definitely too heavy for these fast bendings... at least to my hands.

    • @erikholmbom
      @erikholmbom  Год назад +1

      Thank you, Chris! Yeah, I palm mute them. In a lick like this I like palm muting more of the lower strings. But that’s a personal preference!

    Licks sound better in slower mode to me. Fast is just that... fast. No soul to some country playing. It's all chicken with the head cut off stuff.
    The meat and potatoes are in the slower versions, mostly.
    As an aside, I purchased that same exact looking Tele from Musician's Friend years ago. Had to send it back. Every string, almost every fret buzzed. Totally bummed me out. They ain't no Sweetwater.
