    I'm completely on the same page. I have modified and personalized almost every guitar in my collection. Some just parts swaps, some refinish projects but i have one that is so unique ive never seen anything else like it anywhere. It started as a Squire from a flea market, and now its a truly one of a kind machine! Its become my faforite guitar ever. My friends have all made me offers that would be un heard of for a Squire, but i couldn't part with it if i tried. Its a great feeling to have something that individual and unique, knowing that its all due to your own imagination and skill.

    Great video Eddie was the greatest no doubt! I saw an interview with Eddie a long time ago and he said he got the idea for the 78 Strat (black and white stripes) from the intro to the old TV show The Outer Limits.

    Your one of the BEST guitar players i’ve ever seen!!!One question please…Any tips for a newbie besides practice,practice,practice?

    • @jayguitar
      @jayguitar  7 місяців тому

      Thanks. Thats very kind of you 🙏 besides practice.... yes, my tip would be - practice, practice, practice 😊 🙏 Just kidding. Its super important to keep practicing and playing. If there is one piece of advise I give people, its to learn something really well the first time, even if it takes a while, because then it will carry forward with you into everything else you play. Have an awesome day.

    A great video sir! One of the best things about Ed and what helped me not only with playing music but guitars, amps, pedals... there are no rules! If it looks good, sounds good, plays good then it's good! The scales Ed used, the guitars, the amps were all broken rules of the norm! He created some amazing things and along with many others, the reason I even picked up a guitar in the first place.

    Fantastic video! As a guitar builder/noodler myself, I love the guitars that you have created, very nice. And your Franky being personalized for you n small but important details, is awesome. FYI, I believe you stated that the famous Franky quarter is originally a 1977, it is actually a 1971. Cheers!

    Question: Did you use the Hotone Ampero Stomp 2 for the tones in this video that you have put in the presets you made recently?

    • @jayguitar
      @jayguitar  9 місяців тому +1

      No, the tones were my amps - when i played the Eruption/other VH song medley I think that was my Jet CIty JCA22 head into a 1x12 cab with a 1978 Celestion G12-80 speaker (the audio is just what the camera mic pickup up). Somebody Get Me A Doctor was my custom built 1969 Plexi and I used impulse responses for the cab tones. The Marshall Plexi tone that I have in my Ampero pack is based on this tone 😊 🙏 Have an awesome day.
