    Eddie is also my favorite player. His solo on Stone dead forever is my favorite musical piece ever done.

      Yeah, there's so many good solos! The live version of Stone Dead Forever with Eddie singing has a great version of that solo. I think it was included in one their many compilations.

      Since the reception has been good. I want to keep going on these videos because it is sort of like me discovering and also making mods etc. and also talking a lot about Eddie and Motorhead which people seem to enjoy. Yeah, Motorhead fans are fans for life.

    Hello .
    I'm in the UK
    Last band I went to see was
    Motorhead. At Wolverhampton.
    Any way.
    I've been playing 40 odd years. Big strat fan.
    Now I had a usa strat
    Hss. New.
    I used a Yamaha pacifica
    Natural finish. As a back up. But I found I could play
    The Yamaha faster the neck had a 9inch rad.
    Lower frets.
    Sounded just as good.
    Sold the strat.
    Got another pacifica for spares. Off e bay £99.
    I could have got 5 pacificas
    For the price of the strat.
    If the Peavey works for you.keep it. Bro..
    It sounds good to me.
    Dont get sucked in to
    The world of the gear snobs.
    Ps sold that strat 15 years
    Ago..
    Still using the second hand
    Pacificas. Into marshall.
    Use boss eq for boost.
    Have subscribed to your
    Channel..
    You GOT IT DOWN perfectly.
    WE ARE MOTORHEAD
    AND WE PLAY ROCK N ROLL.
    RIP LEMMY EDDIE PHIL.

      Thanks! Yeah, I would like to get a strat but unfortunately you have to pay upward of $1000 for a good one. I hear you on that.. Fender is like a cult club where they tier their equipment. Quality is only reserved for the first tier at $1000+. Did you do any pickup changes?

      @@musingsofrock no need to.
      These top price guitars
      Are over priced.
      Believe me.
      EVH . Built his out of parts
      None of which were fender.
      Jap guitars are well made.
      I WOULD put a Pacifica j
      In a strat mex . Level.
      Better elects better quality. Less than half the price.
      I know its hard.
      You want what your heroes
      Play. But Clapton built his
      Strat out of junk shop guitars.
      Gary Moore. Second hand
      Bettered strat. He
      Got it cheap .
      As a foot note cheaper low out put pickups are closer to the sound 70s rock bands had as in those days they were low output.
      Don't forget in Motorheads
      Day strats didn't have humbuckers .Eddie would have fitted one in.
      Keep rocking Bro.
      Love your channel.
      Ps the guys in motorhead had no money. When they started. That strat was borrowed from a mate.
      They were broke..
      You own your guitar.
      1970s Britain was a shit hole. We were all skint.

      I just happened to be a student on a field trip with my school in London in 1980 and some local guys we were hanging out with invited us to see Motorhead...
      I didn't know what the hell I was getting into 😄😄😄 but I had already been to several concerts so I said to myself what the hell let's go see them...
      2 hours later my ears were whistling, I was almost completely deaf and I thought I had just survived the end of the world 😄😄🙂😄😄 but this was a total revelation and after that I saw lots of Motorhead concerts until Lemmy's passing...

      Yeah, they definitely knew what they were doing compositionally. Another perfect day has a special charm to it all of its own, I agree. And of course Wurzel was great as well. Phil is good as well. The duo of Wurzel and Phil was awesome especially on Rock and Roll and 1916.

    A stock Strat has a single coil pickup. Fast Eddie played a Strat with a humbucker pickup in Strat. Big difference. You do have humbucker in your axe.

    @vulpeish Год назад +1

    ^ ^ Thats a great video man..... I think you got it. But the weird thing about Motorhead is that they were kind of "funky" and strong on the off beat like rockabilly and soul music. Apparently fast Eddie played with Curtis Knight????? is this true? I do not think that they can be called a "metal band" I mean have you heard " Another Perfect Day" with Robbo Robertson? thats not metal its just amazing music! Foxy Pagan Love fae Scotland VVxx

    • @musingsofrock
      @musingsofrock  Год назад

      I think Lemmy said, "Motorhead has more in common with the Damned and has absolutely nothing whatsoever in common with bands like Iron Maiden and Judas Priest." When you think about it, it is true. Motorhead sounds nothing like classic heavy metal with twin guitars and 10,000 riffs and solos. It's sort of it's own thing. Lemmy just called it rock and roll.

      Hate to give this away.. lol.. but glad to help anyone enjoy playing. Go to Songsterr, it's free. That's where I learned a lot of stuff. It has tabs that you can play back. It's mostly accurate! That's where I learned a lot of the stuff that I couldn't figure out myself like Bomber. I agree with you that riff is so rich and super fun to play.

    • @musingsofrock
      @musingsofrock  Год назад +3

      I just said his "type of sound" not necessarily to match his playing style exactly. There are a lot of components here like amp, fender guitar, pick ups, style, etc. I am not offended. I would be the first to tell you, I do not play like Eddie. That's not what this is about. This is about the love of Motorhead and trying to come up with a similar sound.
