As a dear friend once said about playing slide: "Float, Don't Fret".
I still miss you my buddy.
A great mantra.
Weeeeeee ! , the best slide sound ever.
Thanks
Hey Ramon I've a cheapo Teisco with similar pickups. The difference is , instead of gold foil , there is black vinyl. Also the cut outs on the top of the pickups are slightly different. Question is, could these be the same as gold foils. My pickups are also thin aprox 6/7mm deep, from front to back plate.
They so sound good, considering that they look budget!
Keep up the good work.
Absolutely brilliant bro
Thanks bro
Listening to you ,you got that ry cooder thing goin on, thanks for the tips
So kind - thank you
I love your dedication to the instrument.
I wish I still had it but I only ever owned o e guitar that really suit me and stayed tuned and engineered.
An 85 Epiphone Flying V.
I remember selling it the same year I flogged all my vinyl as I fell for the CD sales drive
Miss them both.
Oh and my Peavey 150 Classic.
Peavey's are great. Thanks Pip
@@TheGuitarShow a valve went, I left it round an old blokes house who was gonna mend it.
A friends little brother stole the speakers from it and blew them up.
I still want blood after 32 years 😀😀😀
Nice hat, too.
Thanks bro
These tones of pure fire and sound sweeter than honey
Thanks so much
Thanx Goose and please discuss flats vs round wounds in a future vid...
Apparently there actually are some brands of flats wot don't
resemble a horrid state of rigueur (?)
I promise to
I'm using a JHS The Milkman snapback delay and boost pedal, with a Mooer Ana Delay and a Topanga CatlinBread through a Fender Deluxe or a Pignose for bedroom volume
Sounds like an awesome combination - Boost is a great tool to have - Im using the B1G pedal from Shin-Ei as my boost!
Find Mississippi Fred Mcdowell's You gotta move.
Then anything by Seasick Steve.
Thanx for an excellent video! What strings are you using?
Thanks Nils - I use D'addarios 12s both flats and round wounds
Really love these types of tone videos. Also, what albums or songs do you recommend for someone who wants to get into Ry Cooder’s music?
Ill do a specific video on this very soon - a great question!
Mambo sinuendo whoops!
@@Skelterz that's my favourite album
@@TheGuitarShow yeah I know mate you’ve said it before I was just being a complete anal bead at the utter disgust that you would deprive this man the album so he was forced to tune in next time! Shame on you send me a bloody pedal.
I adore the bridge pickup tone Ry gets. I tend to mute string noise, so is the cover to the bridge pick necessary for the magnetic field? Would you recommend another exposed pickup instead?
No
No I'd go with the valco standard pickup David
With all the pedals. Is it a Fender Twin, Deluxe (5E3) that works best? Or what would they sound like though a Champ?
I'd say a twin would sound the most hifi, but a Deluxe can sound amazing especially with the slap back and also remember Ry uses 4 x smaller ttube amps rather than any 100watt amps.
A slide vid with your amazing 'Cooder-Caster'
in a state of dis-repair and dis-assembly...
Oh the shame of it, a veritable slew of broken hearts from coast to coast...
(BTW, why the new neck?) Beautiful tones, as per and Cheerios
I'll show you the new neck soon bro
Thanks for your videos!!!
I’m building myself a Coodercaster now!!!
And that your fault 😉
👍🏻
So cool Nico - I'm honoured!
I’m a Ry Cooder fan too, and your videos on his sound are very interesting!
Thanks

What is the blue device on the right next to the pedals?
Theres a blue pedal power unti and also the quick silver delay is blue
One way to get a good slide tone is to not use a strat. Don’t know anyone else besides Ry Cooder who sounds good playing slide on one.Tele’s like Goose has are a bit better because of the output but they usually have a 7.25 radius newer ones 9.00 and it’s still far from ideal. Best mainstream slide guitar is an SG by a mile. Thin, wide and flat. If you don’t already play slide guitar and you get an SG you’ll learn quick. The guitar lends itself to throwing your arm up or down they fretboard at the end of every phrase you play to the point where that’s pretty much all you’re doing so you might as well tune to a chord lol
Great comment !
How about Lowell George and Sonny Landreth..pretty amazing tone i'd say.
You seriously don't know anyone other than Ry Cooder who sounds good playing slide on a Strat? Bonnie Raitt, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Lowell George, Jack Pearson, Dickey Betts, even Duane Allman played slide on Strat in Muscle Shoals. A lot of great slide players played slide on Strats.
For the record... I'll take a Tele or a Strat over an SG for slide all day. But I also don't care for Derek Trucks' slide tone or playing...and the SGs are as ugly as sin...and they have neck dive like mad.
@@BluesDeville yeah but you can access the frets better on an sg. Bonnie Raitt played one guitar her whole career so that can hardly count. Duane played it on a strat cause it’s what Dickey gave him as a backup to tune to an open chord with. Later on when he got a few bucks he used an sg for slide as well. Jeff Beck used a strat for more reasons than I’ll elaborate on but again I don’t think he was choosing the strat for slide but rather for other reasons. Clapton yes I’ll give you that one
Sonny Landreth plays strats. ua-cam.com/video/MMB7Xf_7JDs/v-deo.html
And early in his career, Johnny Winter played a tele string strat (strung with six strings) as in his woodstock performance. ua-cam.com/video/kJSEZeNrKNM/v-deo.html
Nice sounds! I think those pickups help a lot. One of my favorite slide guitar tones ever was done by Blake Mills : ua-cam.com/video/YpPDFofXqsM/v-deo.html . Not to mention about everything Ry Cooder ever played and recorded.I would love to build a coodercaster..love the sound of the pickups..just different..got that 'slide' tone. IMO. In the meantime..I'll just use my trusty ol' Telecaster.
I'll do a video soon in my coodercaster neck
@@TheGuitarShow Cant wait to see it..thanks for sharing bro!
