I think you may have fiddled with my hyphens there! And no, the blister has been a little scar for a good long time now.
Can you play every song with the twangy-pingy sound? Never liked it myself as long as you feel what I'm playing in your stomach, I'm happy. If I feel the need to be all 'in-yer-face' I use the bridge p-up and maybe even the D string! |

Fiddled with your hyphens? "How very dare you"  I'm not the sort of mod who'd edit a contributor's post just to gain a cheap laugh (eh, Lee? The eggs have landed? )
With the SS strings on the Aria, I got a very JJ Brunel sound which I was overly fond of. Everyone was happy enough in my old band (or, at least, I seemed to exert immense influence) but my current guitarist hated it and the drummer found it all pretty amusing. I remember we were doing a gig with an interval DJ and, when he played "Grip", they were all pointy-finger-laugh-at-1BL.
Like you say, the nickels are better all-rounders as I can still get that offensive blat. I had an idea for a chorusy part that was a bit thrashy so I gung-ho'd it like in the old days. The new singer, who'd never been around in my Aria days (and a decent bass player himself) looked aghast while the others fell about. |
