Absolutely fantastic. When I first heard him, I thought he must've been using a string bender.

No, I don't mean I'm in 8th grade (like the USA school system), I mean I've just done my Grade 8 guitar - the last exam you can take in preparation for a teaching diploma (in the UK anyway). I'm 17, and have only been playing for just over 3 years, so there are plenty of things for me still to discover, but as I can play most things I come across, they do not amaze me. I would never have thought of playing like this, though.

stratmaster136 Your only in 8th grade and you don't find much that takes your breath away. I used to think like you about 35 years ago. I've studied all the greats in all styles over the years. I could give you a list of so many great players known and unknown. And the unknown ones are probably better than anyone you've heard of. What players do you consider great? formally mastercollector and now Gattonmaster

Stratomaster checkout Danny Gatton live @ Gallaghers 88 if this takes your breath away you'll need to call the paramedics before you watch it

btw: what is the stomp box he uses? is it the JD20 (or 10?)?

Have been practicing his technique, its very hard but im getting closer. But i only do what he does in the begining, with 3 string bending, ends in 3, 5, 1.
He uses 0.09 right? (i use 0.10, but i still make it. i chose 0.10 cause i found out i was going to train my fingers on bending with 0.10)

i recently took my grade 8, and I play a lot, and listen to a lot of different music, and it's so rare to find something that still takes the breath away, technically and musically -

Yeah, I have that issue. It's from 87-88,actually. I think Albert Collins is on the cover. |
