Post by Bob Carlucci »

Its awful!.. Done with a camera phone.. I was so worried about distortion, I had the volume super low. My voice is louder than the steel, and the pedals are clanking away because I had so little sound coming from the amp. duh.....
oh well, you'll get the idea...

Lots of clams too!

Hi Joe.. its been a while my friend!...
Pedal 4- drops string 6 Fa full tone G#-F#.. I used it a few times in the vid..
Pedal 5.. Drops string 5 a full tone B-A.. both pedals together are the "Franklin change".. Most guys have them on 1 pedal or lever, but I like to use the G#-F# lower on its own.. I use it a LOT, so I keep it split..
Pedal 6- raises string 1 F# up a full tone and string 2 Eb up a half tone.. I do believe I hit that change as well somewhere in that dopey little video... That old Fender sounds much nicer in person .. lol... bob

I'm thinking the Old Fender is not your first in line Guitar, good though it is. I look forward to more coming from your direction.

??... I always said I sounded like the guys I listened to early on, and Jerry was one of them.

I don't run from it, I embrace it.... It has served me well for decades.. bob
