Title: 'Song for my Brother' - Follow up post
Post by: PhiloB on December 21, 2014, 08:17:51 PM
Again, thanks to the folks on this forum for all the support:

http://www.madbeanpedals.com/forum/index.php?topic=18810 (http://www.madbeanpedals.com/forum/index.php?topic=18810)

I decided to write some music as a thank you for the guitar.  I played it a few hours and decided that the neck pickup sounds really great for finger picking (really balanced sound across all six strings through my amp).  I used that idea as a building block for the rest of the song.  The bridge pickup sounds like a tele so I incorporated some country style double stop melody for the second guitar part.  He had included a slide in the case so I felt obliged to put some slide at the end of the song (I really can't play slide but felt it was the 'right' thing to do).

As a meager thank you to you all here on the forum, I am sharing it as well.

Thanks again,
Phillip

Fantastic all-round! I wish I could not play slide as well as you do
