Hi Joric,
Good to know you are doing well! One of these days I hope to hook up with you and get an improptu slide lesson. Sa totoo lang, up to this day the slide work you did for "Sleepwalker" (was it the title?
) at one of the EB's still haunts me today
.
Lets start with the basic. You learn how to play guitar to play a song. Not entirely to copy the tone of the song but to learn the chords of the song and play it. You get a "Jingle Chordbook" and get the song ( sorry ha..pang matandalang yung Jingle--kasi nuon walang internet
) Thats entirely your focus. Once you master that then you move on to the gears, guitars, amps, pedals and the whole 9 yards.
But then again, what is your focus? Is it getting the tone of lets say The Edge, Clapton, Beck, Page, Hendrix (sorry ha...old school ako eh)? Then I think the "gear" factor would have to come in to help you getting your Focus (or goal).
Just my 2 centavoes worth rin!
God Bless you Joric! Thanks for the insightful thread!
