hi everybody on my favourite forum,
i have to confess one thing first: i am a rocker through and thru. but i want to play
(cross the) heartland of pat metheny's legendary recording "american garage".
just for the fun of it and to prove to my best friend (a bass player and JAZZER through and through)
that rockers can play ...
i don't have a big problem playing it, although it is quite fast, but what really sucks is: i sound TERRIBLE.
while this may sound hilarious to many of you, i do not have ANY idea how to sound like early metheny.
if u want to sound like angus give me a PM and i'll tell ya , but pat ????
take a clean sound, add a little bit of chorus here and some delay there, finito?
TERRIBLE! not that easy.
listen: i won't tell you his name, but the guitarist of my bassplayer's group sounds TERRIBLE when he plays
"the power of love" by huey lewis. so maybe it is a question of how you were raised or what you listen to.
i do not know. so please give me some suggestions (or a complete jazz rig??). i know that some of you
play fusion and jazz.
thank you very much
PS: i have three guitars < a charvel HB only | fender squire SC only and | a tokai strat SC only
