Homeskoolin’ Bonus, “Danger Will Robinson”

Chapters
00:00 - Intro, Jeff Senn
01:08 - '54 Fender Stratocaster
01:46 - Fender Middle pickup
02:04 - Senn Middle pickup


Notes
As part of my lifelong effort to defend the honor and virtue of old guitars, I offer you this short comparison

Check out how much more fucking DANGEROUS the bridge pickup on this time capsule 150k early production 54 Strat is compared to the shit I normally use.

In a side by side comparison the senn sounds like a cheap model of the 54…

Granted, it’s all about context…what song are we playing etc etc…but you gotta admit, that shit sounds damn good.

Wish I could afford it friends

Homeskoolin’ Bonus “The Hippie Strum”

Chapters
00:00 - Vince Gill gig up-close footage strumming away


Notes
Here’s an inside look at what is REALLY happening in the rhythm guitar engine room on these Vince gigs at the Ryman.

My dear mate Jedd Hughes and I are trying to make some comfy beds for the boss man to do his thing over all night long

These are also both good examples of the “hippie strum” on a jangly electric that I have basically worked my entire life to try to perfect…

so much harder than it sounds to make the hippie strum feel legit with the exact amount of jangle and just the right shimmer tone.

I’ll let you know when I get there.
