Hi kennl; Sounds like a great guitar!! When it comes right down to it...I guess all Teles are really partscasters...just Fender parts!! Let us know when your tunes are finished.

In tunes 7 & 8, I understand the cascading chromatic open runs, but how are those harmonic ascending and descending cascades pulled off? By the way, where are you located in CT?

Hi jdtele; Those open, harmonic cascades in Cannonball Rag, and Simpletown Breakdown, are embarrasingly easy!! With forward, and reverse banjo rolls under your hands, they're a breeze (coupled with the woodshed, and a lot of coffee

). They're all done at the 7th, and 12th frets. I'll tab it out, and email it to you. As to my location: I'm way up in the Litchfield Hills, Northwest Connecticut.

Thanks, cdtele!!........ Dug your stuff as well. "Twang" reminded me of some early Mike Stern.....boy, there's a compliment!! Thanks again.

It's hard to type with my jaw dropped onto my hands, but I'm trying. Great stuff.

Thanks all, for listening, here's "Steel Guitar" Rag............... www.driveway.com/w=a4y2i5h6s8

Nicely done, Paulie!

anfontan · May 11th, 2008, 09:50 PM

Totally awesome playing, those call & response phrases are just beautiful. You really have some interesting looking guitars you coaxed those amazing tones out of too! I can't quite figure out the controls that are under the tone knob on the 5 pickup Tele, can you describe them for me please?

Thanks anfontan!!...Those controls couldn't be easier...4 Jag, chrome covered, pu's on the pickguard, are switched by a Bass VI switchplate...each switch 1-4, corresponds to it's respective pickup. The 3 way Tele switch works as a standard Tele.....back pos./bridge pickup.... middle pos./bridge + selected front pickups.....Front pos./ selected front pickups.

Thanks also P.J.!!

Telesavant,

Awesome! Thanks for the sharing.

I just started playing guitar ~ 1 year ago, and just purchased my first Tele yesterday ... boy I have a long way to go ... good thing I believe it is the journey and not the destination that maters.

Thanks jt44tele!! We all have a long way to go, and with that philosophy, hopefully... continue to improve!!

lmcgillet · May 16th, 2008, 09:16 PM

Great!! Thank you!

Exceptional pedal-steely sounds you get out of the Tele, and I especially love the clean unfuzzed quality.

Wish I could play remotely as virtuos. Alright, no boredom for many a year for me...

Luther

Wow! You must have been busier then a one legged man in an ass kicking contest while learning this stuff!! Exactly how much of that is bender and how much of that is manual bending!!

Twang · June 15th, 2008, 12:22 AM

Great googely-moogely!!!

Thanks, KTdid!! Yes, I was busy, and while most intelligent folks have a pension coming....I have my Tele. There is about 10-30% bender in any given tune...mostly manual bends though.

Also....thanks, Twang , HOBBSTER01, and trag-o-caster for taking the time to listen!!

Hey Cygnus;.....here's the tab to Simpletown Breakdown #8. It clears up well if you click on the green arrows in the bottom right of enlargment. Sorry so late....let me know how you do.

KTdid · August 31st, 2008, 07:31 PM

Thanks for that last tab, that certainly helped with the intro to tune 8, although it's still alluding me. Now, how about tabing out the harmonic runs for tune 7 + 8, as I am ready to smash my guitar!!

thanks.

....GIVE ME A WHILE, AND THANKS FOR LISTENING.....
