EP 354 Drop D

[Dave O]

I learned this song on acoustic similar to the way Brian played it on the lesson video. However, I decided to give it a try on electric when I made this recording. This was definitely a fun lesson to do during a very cold weekend here in Colorado. I took some improv freedoms so did not follow lesson precisely when recording.

For those interested in gear like I am, I recorded it playing a Collings 290 DC with Throbak P90s into my pedal board and then into a Top Hat Puretone 18 (a Vox AC15 style amp). I really love this amp. For pedals I was lightly using a Kingsley Page TS and an Unobtanium Raw with a little Strymon reverb and delay. I used an SM57 and a Russian ribbon mic and blended to taste.

Thanks for listening!

I’m unfamiliar with this lesson but you made it sound good! I like the tone of the Collings with the p90’s.
