  • Get the tone with the gear you have... A quick electric guitar tutorial on getting the tone Mike Campbell from Tom Petty's “Breakdown". Gear links below!
    In this video we will show you how you can get the most out of the gear you do have access to. From small boutiques to Fender and Boss, you can get great tone from the gear you have! Vintage gear isn’t necessary (but can be the extra 10%)
    We will demonstrate how to sound like Mike Campbell using a Telecaster, a Stratocaster, and a Gibson L6s Deluxe (humbucker). We'll start with a Timmy overdrive pedal and a Diamond Memory Lane Jr. run through an Oldfield Honky Tonk D'Lux. Then we'll break out the classic Boss Super Overdrive and the Fender Blues Jr.
    Great tone doesn't have to cost a fortune. If you check out our other videos on Touch and Technique, you can learn how to get the signature tone of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers.

    Good example of tone being in the hands. Thanks for showing that valuable point so well using common and custom gear. Great delivery of information and focus on using the knobs to tweak the sound. Well done.

    Great breakdown on all the different aspects of learning from great artists. Not merely just the notes. Tone technique etc. You shouldn't have stopped with these intermediate lessons. Some of the best on UA-cam. And not many covering all these essential aspects.

  • @tjFalcon91

    Close, but not quite. Any clean fender amp with a TS style pedal for a little grit (Green Rhino) would be fine. Really any bright’ish guitar with good clarity and a transparent overdrive sound will suffice. Gotta play the part right tho... Campbell (and petty) crafted their parts to perfectly compliment the song so you really should learn the part correctly to do it justice. If you really want to sound like Campbell, carefully listen to his vibrato, bending tendencies and where he is on the neck.

    • @auntjenifer7774
      @auntjenifer7774 4 роки тому

      Sho you right, but I noticed it sounds allot better with a tweed amp though.

    • @touchtonetechnique6984
      @touchtonetechnique6984  2 роки тому

      This idea works great for live, but you are right, it’s really more about the feel of the part. The original recording has a little more of a ‘slidey’ feel. Glissing into the notes with a neck pickup.

  • @philf4086
    @philf4086 4 роки тому +1

    I heard a comment at one point by Mike Campbell that he used a Strat in position 1 for the lead part in the studio. This sounds just as good though with the Tele, not a lot of difference between the Tele and Strat in many cases.
    Good job!

    • @touchtonetechnique6984
      @touchtonetechnique6984  4 роки тому

      Yeah, since this video I've tried all different things and the recording is definitely position 1 (neck pickup) a good tele neck pickup can be just as good as a strat pickup!

    • @touchtonetechnique6984
      @touchtonetechnique6984  2 роки тому +1

      It IS more of a ‘slide into the note’ thing for sure. I play it like that sometimes, but in a live context, the legato thing works well for me.

    Campbell slides between those notes of the opening riff......it's not a hammer-on technique.
