  • As a guitar instructor himself, one thing Daniel Donato often hears from his students is that though they spend a lot of time practicing new and challenging guitar skills off-stage, they tend to seize up and revert back to simpler and more comfortable habits on stage. In the video above, Donato lays out three of his best tips for helping players to break those poor performance habits and get more creative during live shows.

      Major Bálint I’m not Daniel, but to answer your question - try a compressor pedal! Really great for that snappy Tele into a clean amp sound, and improves note sustain immensely without adding any distortion. Dyna Comp, Keeley Compressor Plus, Wampler Ego, all great affordable choices.

      right, i didn't get the obvious joke. what's the point of it? It's not funny, and if anything, it only cements my point of reverb producing an annoyingly moot video. none of his tips have anything to do with playing live on a stage, just a bunch of basic guitarist bullshit. I think reverb are better than this

      Josef K, well, “sober” as in not drunk. We used to smoke a lot of weed & even played on acid, but alcohol was a no no.
      We learned that the hard way. We made a rule as a band to not drink any alcohol during our sets.

      @josefk5659 4 роки тому +2

      Mark El some of my favorite shows I was very high on cocaine. The energy is undeniable. I’ve gotten loaded drunk and played some wild sets too but there is an obvious compromise that gets made when one gets too drunk. If anyone needs supporting evidence, watch Jimmy Page at Live Aide.
