Thanks for the invitation Steve
Hi Steve, let me know how you get on and if you still need a slowed down vid I'll do it for you another time... All the best Paul
Hi Steve, I'll check out your videos, I love the harmonica...
I think you will find Keni's video very helpful. Just learning that 12 bar blues scale is worth the few dollars it cost in my book. I'll post another progression video next Wed/Thurs. ( Just so you can chuckle!)
Keep in touch and when the video arrives let me know how you get on with it.
All the best

Hi Steve,
I am glad you found the video useful. My personal choice is for a magnetic pickup with a bit of piezo added. I also like to coil tap magnetic pickups so you get more choice in the sound (series/spilt coil/parallel). The box guitar was one I made a while ago (the neck is off a strat stripped for parts by an ebay seller) - I really like the big space you get in these boxes to play around with the electrics.
I hope you find the sound you are looking for.
Regards,
David
