TrueFire has just released its iPhone app Guitar Lab and it's mondo cool! Download it on iTunes or check it how at TrueTire's site. My 50 Blues Guitar Licks You Must Know is availbale for download! Too Cool!
I am a guitar geek, I love all the masters that we all do, Jimi, Beck, Page, Clapton, etc. But I have to say I have been as heavily influence by Daniel Lanois as I have been by Jeff Beck. Lanois is best know for being a producer of U2, Peter Gabriel, Robbie Robertson, Bob Dylan, Emmylou Harris, and many others. He has a sound that is all his own and I can't get enough of it, I try my hardest not to steal from him too much! He got me to look at the guitar is a different way. He, like Beck and Hendrix, plays the guitar like an extension of himself. Watch him, physically. Check out his new band Black Dub and download this free tune. Anyway... I wanted to give you a quick look into his playing via youtube.
Here is a demo I did for Michael Tuttle. I am a huge fan of his guitars and he is also a great guy. Since I am one of the owners of the 4 of these guitars in existence Michael asked that I do a demo for him. I am playing through a Bogner Mojado for the live clips and a Marshall 2061X through a THD 2x12 with greenbacks for the solo clips. Check out Michael's guitars here.
Here is a cool link to the TrueFire Blog that I contributed to singing the praises of the ZVEX Box of Rock. My must have pedal. I really can't say enough great things about this pedal, I never leave home without it!
