Really great tone you got going on there Drew and lovely playing too!

Thanks

Although thanks to you, now I'm GASing for a strat so I can get that strat tone

Seriously good tone man

The tone is very close, but to get Gilmour's overall sound, it's important to hold back as much as you can on the flashier licks. Gilmour take his time & bends almost everything. That's a huge part in why his solos sounds so fluid.

Overall, it's really nice though.

Man, just listening to this is givin me blue balls for your album

I dug it. Just needed a little delay tonewise. I pretty much second everything Shannon said.

Good job

The mix is still a little rough, and I meander a little (not to mention drop in the occasional George Lynch inspired bit - there's some cool middle ground between those two), but it's all fun and games until someone loses a testicle, right?

Yep.

Mildly drunk, but of course I overplay more than Gilmour. He's brilliant, I'm a hack.

Very nice, Drew, the tone is close, I love that straty gritty tone, nice playing as always, great tune too. Gilmour has always been one of my favs.

Fuck all that shit. As usual, Drew's playing is fucking gorgeous, badass, and totally listenable.

keithb · 08-13-2006, 01:44 PM

Amazing as always - you have a great touch.
