Glad you appreciate what I'm spending my bit of guitar playing on... Yeah, this music is deep in my head, so from time to time, gotta learn another one. Thanks for your support. ;-)
Great job, as always, this all makes sense at last ! Playing the Bm and the G differently in order to play the melody and then use an A7 instead of an A. Many thanks. Cheers
Sure, man... Glad it was helpful. I too had been wanting to learn this "correctly" for decades. Finally put some effort into it. Easy to flub unless you get a nice flow going...
Your Casino is not exactly the same as Weller's. I believe you have an earlier version of the Kalamazoo made Casino than Weller as your Casino has the shorter headstock that was discontinued in 64. 1964 was the transition year when Epiphone made Casino's with 2 different style headstock shapes. Weller's Casino has the longer Epiphone shaped headstock made later in 64. Weller's guitar also doesn't have a tremolo and has a flying tailpiece. See Paul McCartney's Casino compared to George and John's also see Paul Weller Sunflower Live Jools Holland 1993 - UA-cam. Personally I prefer your guitar (and McCartneys) to Weller's.
Well, said, Tony. You're right about Weller's Casino--larger headstock, like my '66 single pickup model has, interestingly enough. Same finish though... ;-) www.modfather1965guitarshop.com/1966-epiphone-casino-230-t.html BTW, I switched out the original trapeze tailpiece for a '64 Tremotone Vibrato, just cause I love accessories... Some years back, I was even fooling around with the idea of gifting this one to him (actually, I wanted to trade it for a piece of memorabilia... Maybe the white ruffle shirt off his first solo LP???). I mentioned it on a forum someplace, then had one or two of his cronies giving me pressure to do it--no trade, just a meet-up--which felt odd to me (I'm sure he knew nothing about it...). So, I backed out. Then I found out he has like three of these...
@@modfather1965 You made the right choice not to trade the guitar, having that guitar is far better than any Weller memorabilia because in itself its the best piece of memorabilia of the 60's that I would want to own.
Remember watching Paul play this in Sheffield after seeing him play many times without playing any Jam songs. Was nearly in tears.
Is that the one from about 2002 on YT where you can see the old Jam fans go nuts, I've watched that loadsa times, it is emotional.
That would have been amazing, really... What a memory. ;-)
@@jonathansteadman7935 Possibly mate. I know I went nuts and some younger lads near me looked at me gone out.
Thanks your tutorials are ace, you do have a great passion for what your playing 👍

Brilliant ✌
Made my rainy day!
Hey man... Hope you're well. ;-)
Luck you, got rain. It's been the hottest/driest summer ever on record here. The epitome of Long Hot Summer...
