Incredible performance...
Man that sound! Every note perfect.
THANKS!

 

[dreadnut]

Thanks, Coastie, and all that on a short scale gut-string guitar :shock:

Every time I attempt slide guitar it sounds retarded

Check Roy out on this old Gibby too...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rZVz3O4 ... e=related#

Yep, Roy can play slide as well as anyone.

I'm always amazed how many guitar players haven't heard of him.

His records with Norton Buffalo are great. 8)

Hey dread...are you using an open tuning?

 

[dreadnut]

FNG, I've tried it a few different tunings but the result has always been the same, I should probably learn some moves from someone who actually knows what they're doing...I can do it a little but I find it real difficult to land in exactly the right place with the slide every time.

Sounds like perfect justification for me to go and see Bonnie Raitt and Taj Mahal when they play here later this summer

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

THAT very same video turned me on some time ago, to the idea of owning an el cheapo, ladder braced guitar !!

Eventually bought one on Ebay, and had it shipped to West, in order to have it shipped to me. He's currently playing the position markers off it !!

 

[FNG]

Sweet! I love that tune. Trying to get Little Brother to do one of his online lessons for it.

 

[Darryl Hattenhauer]

I didn't hear about this guy until a few years ago.

What kind of 12 string reso is that?

 

[Dr. Spivey]

Darryl, Roy's 12er is a Dobro. Photo and mentioned in this interview. http://www.modernguitars.com/archives/004251.html

 

[Darryl Hattenhauer]

Thanks Dr. I didn't even know that Dobro made a 12 er.
