This track was inspired by the sight of our electrical power lines sparking and smoking in a torrential storm! The local cockatoos had been chewing the lines! What would we do without electricity?

My subscribers are either into sharks or guitar music so I thought I'd combine the two with this effort! This one took a while as I had to get my chops up to speed. The title is just for fun, these beautiful creatures are just like big puppies, wouldn't hurt a fly! :-) Special thanks to HaRu music for the wonderful Guthrie Govan style rock fusion backing track! ua-cam.com/video/BQxP1BT5FuY/v-de...

Spring has sprung, it's time to get into some funk! Drawing on inspiration from some seriously talented funksters, you need to check out MonoNeon, Ghost Note and the almighty guitarist Isaiah Sharkey!

No, I've never been there, but what a fascinating period in history! Imagine what the pyramids would have looked like when they were first built and knowing what the hieroglyphic symbols are saying. Built to last till the end of time. How did they do it? Antigravity technology? We'll never know. Hope you enjoy my sound track.

As a teenager I had the privilege of having guitar lessons from one of Australia's great jazz players, George Golla. I still remember those intimate lounge room sessions where George and Don Andrews would play for students of the Academy of Guitar, wow! Hearing those two cool cats trading licks and having fun really opened my mind to jazz and introduced me to the wonderful world of jazz guitar....

Dedicated to the Whammy Master, Jeff Beck who was an inspiration to us all! Also, credit to the great funky backing track, such a fun groove to play over. Thank you Charvel for making such incredible instruments that stay in tune even after this workout! Backing track: ua-cam.com/video/sB90Pqpig40/v-deo.html

Still loving playing over this Jazz Bossa Nova backing track by AUsher Tracks. A nice groove to throw in some Spanish riffs! Sangria anyone? Grab the backing track here: ua-cam.com/video/H0j_xIm4fW0/v-deo.html

This was inspired by the great sounding Bossa backing track found at the link below. I've always loved bossa beats and this track just wrote itself. I'm also trying out my new NUX Solid Studio which made it a breeze to find the tones I was looking for without disturbing the neighbours. A great piece of kit if you need to record silently or at low volumes. A huge thank you to these guys for the ...

A chillout piece for the end of the year. I think we all need some relaxation music after 2022, it's been a hell of a year! Some shots from my recent holiday in Tahiti on the magical island of Moorea. Yes, the water really is that aquamarine blue and so clear.

Sounds great!
I have a 1983 Strat Elite with a FreeFlyte trem. The problem with this guitar is that there's no rear access. Other than a battery compartment, the back of the guitar is solid wood. You have to take off the strings, the pickguard, the bridge pickup, and the dummy coil to get at the springs and the claw plate. The claw plate sits parallel to the pickguard with three pairs of screw holes for different string tension, which the manual refers to as .010, .009 and .008. On a normal strat, a quarter turn of the claw-plate screws can make a difference to whether the bridge floats or sits flat to the body. On the Elite, moving the plate from .010 to .009 or from .009 to .008 seems to be the equivalent of about five full turns of the screws on a normal Strat. So you either end up with the bridge flat to the body or the bridge sitting up at about 30 degrees. As you can imagine, experimenting with different settings and different gauges of strings (I've tried a lot of combinations), when each change requires what looks like open-heart surgery, is not easy. Is the Strat you're playing here a more traditional design, with a back plate that allows you to easily access the springs and claw?
Thanks for your feedback and question Phil. This is a 1983 USA built Fender Strat Elite, however, I swapped the active pickups for a set of Kinman Woodstock noiseless and also the neck as I had worn out the frets! This meant getting a custom pickguard made as the Elite pickups are a different size to standard Strat pickups. Yes, you do have to do open-heart surgery to adjust the springs to the correct string gauge. I just use standard 9 to 42 gauge strings and the claw is set for .009 gauge. To set the tremolo to float is tricky and you must follow the procedure in the manual exactly. I have since had the frets replaced on the original neck and put it back on as it's super thin and suits my hands.
Fabulous John ! Clever bastard !
Nice San Dimas Johnny....great to see you old mate! This track is better than Uncle Bobs Guacamole...for sure!
Good to hear from my ol Wakadoo pal! Uncle Bobs Guacamole dip is a hard act to follow! 😃
That is excellent. Beautiful tone and sensitively played. I'll add that to my list of performance pieces. Thanx Onimok. 🙂
Lovely playing &tone
Nice playing 😀
Lovely touch & settings. Well done John, Cheers Anthony
Hey John! Awesome as always. What amp are you running through? Great tone!
Hi Dean, glad you liked it. I'm playing through a small Engl Gigmaster 15 watt Combo (so I don't disturb the neighbours too much!). The Charvel is doing all the work, I'm just cover decoration ;-)
Very nice playing
superb rendition
You are a legend, to be the first and the best, and in a 440, tone and a half down. Only took me 8 years😊
Great demo of the Free Flyte Trem.
『p』『r』『o』『m』『o』『s』『m』
Love your music John, always have. A little bit of Jimi from days in Singo.
Thanks Mick! Those days in Singo were a blast, good times mate!
You always make it look so effortless. Great stuff! Thanks John.
Thanks Dean, glad you like it. Just starting to hit my peak! ;-)
fantastic! bravo!

Awesome stuff John as always! Great to see you still at it. Was waiting and waiting for the Comino shred….. and at 4:44 you delivered! Good onya mate.
Thanks Dean! Yeah couldn't resist just adding a little shred in the right spot. At least you watched it all the way through! ;-)
Thanks
Roasted neck Charvel sounds great on you mate!
Thanks! Best guitar I've ever owned, I hardly ever have to tune it. For me it covers all the tones and has all the features I wanted for such a reasonable price. I love it!!
@@johncomino4751 Johnny1, I looked at one a while back. Nice gtr to play. My CS Strat has a similar vibe though I prefer the roasted neck over Rosewood. Great to see you on Tube......Johnny2
Hey Johnny2 great to hear from you! Only just catching up on my social media. Hope all is good in your world.
even better than "Uncle Bobs Gaucamole" from 1978. Ovation sounds nice and jangly. Great to see you on the YTube Johnny!! (the other Johnny)
Great to hear from you Johnny2! Uncle Bobs Gaucamole still sounds good after all these years.
hi.john ,too good solo....i liked it...
dear john, it sounds great,i try to play it.thanks
dear john, recently visited yr guitar theory site,fantastic,,it has given me more confident to learn . good wishes..
Practice more and listen to the Focus band playing, to stay in step with the music and perfect the arpeggio.
THE ARPEJO WAS EARLY OUT OF TIME, BUT THE REMAINING WAS REASONABLE.
This is beautiful
Very nice well played sir
Very-very nice !!! I love this tune from Jan Akkerman ! But since I have been looking for years to find the correct tab of this tune , it has proved to me without any decent result !!!There are unfortunately quite a few (one or two) which they have some mistakes !!! Where did you find how to play that so precisely ??? Do you have any available tab sir ???I am interested if so . Thank you in advance !!!
Very nice , quite correct ! I like this tune , thanks
Did you change the neck?? I notice 22 frets
Must be one of the later Japan models, when the US dropped the Freeflyte
John! I love this! Thank you for posting it. Your subscriber #10
Reminds me of driving through the mountains in 74
Hey John that is a nice composition...I enjoyed listening to it...
beautiful!
That sounds very good! I wish I had it! That tremolo has a fair bit more sustain than the vintage six-screw tremolo I have. Right now I don't even use it (it's blocked) because I can't stand the factory setup. So, I'm going to try a Hipshot Tremsetter to see if that will alleviate some of the problems with it.
Beautiful Sound Killer Guitar
Well done, sir! A beautiful song by one of the greatest bands on earth!
Well played! Congrats!
Very nice musical phrases in the solo !!!!Well done my friend !!!!
You are doing your "finger picking technique" , very well !!!! Juliette will be very glad for that, hahaha!!!
Very emotional piece !!!! Well done
Very nice !!!! Have you learned to play that by ear???? I have a tab of that song , but in some points i prefer your version Do you play also bouzouki , ( i see that on the wall) Thank you
beautiful
Very nice, John. Good job.
