Episode 61 – Listener Questions, Pick Reviews – V-Picks
{EAV:b41d9f5a7c08ab3c}
This week we have some questions about getting the open F chord right, string muting, scales and clean guitar picking. I continue to review picks. This week it’s V-Picks & not only do we try them out on guitar, but mandolin too!
Check out V-Picks!
Here is an old video I did that may help with timing on scales.
I like the Keeley modded DS-1
Episode 60 – Picks reviewed & listener questions
This week I finally do some guitar pick reviews! Yeah! Also, more listener feedback, questions & answers. Keep ’em coming folks! I dig it!
This is a way long episode compared to most – about an hour. I know some of you have been asking for longer episodes. I’m not intentionally making them longer. It’s just happening.
Listen to the episode already!
Here are the two guitar pick company website links that I review this week.
- Blue Chip Picks I review the Blue Chip CT 55. I really dig it. If the tone you hear is the missing link to your signature sound, $35 isn’t bad.
- StoneWorks Picks I review a few “Plain Janes” from StoneWorks. Unfortunately at the time of publication they don’t have any in stock. But wow are these picks cool! Pricey? Yes. But way huge on mojo! Here’s a link to their facebook page.
This is Tommy’s rosewood fretboard that is getting too dry.
Here are some healthy rosewood fretboards. See how nice and dark and rich the wood appears. That is how happy rosewood looks.
