Andy Timmons playing "While My Guitar Gently Weeps"

[GarMan]

Good jebus. He was just effing around too I believe.

 

[Carlo]

Inspiring. Anyone know what guitar that is?

 

[RLD]

I like when the drums come in @2:06.

 

[gmans]

and yet another proof that tone is in the hands regardless of gear!

 

[Yossi]

You can really tell a lot about his right hand attack. Just listen to the sound of the strings.

 

[DakotaRed]

The guitar looks like his old warhorse Ibanez, the prototype for his signature model.

He mentions at the end that he is going to practice and get better... sheesh!

To my ears, that is the worst sound I have ever heard from him.

His playing is great though

Yeah man. He is spanking them.

I never gave it much thought until the big Hotlicks video craze years ago; granted it has to do with miking, but I realized that the guys I liked were picking very, very dynamically. At that time, all my grind came from a pedal.

 

[Ubersooner]

He plays drums, percussion and bass at the same time. That's serious multitasking. Phenom.

 

[Marc Roy]

That smoked!

 

[Frank Prince]

He is a beast!

Here is Vinnie Moore from 1988- gorgeous!

 

[GarMan]

What is that blue box that seems to be connected to that Vox mini amp?

 

[slider313]

Sorry, but I find the tone metallic and tinny.

 

[Ladhilbluesband]

Ok well the tone isn't great but it sounded like the amp was on 1. The attack on the strings was louder than the amp!

That was just amazing if it was his first attempt at the song. Imagine if he actually practiced it!

Excellent! Vinnie was always one of my favorite Shrapnel Shredders.

 

[GarMan]

The guy is playing through a tiny battery powered amp guys? No need to call the TGP tone police. Don't really care if he was playing through a Pignose. His phrasing and adding to the melody was pretty awe-inspiring.

Vinnie actually transcended Shrapnel and was on Polygram for Time Odyssey.

I think Yngwie was doing well they and wanted to recreate the magic. It's a real well produced guitar record.

I agree! The video is not about the tone!
