Incredible to watch this and consider the magical instruments being built (and what they’d be worth now!).

Scott McKeon “Voodoobluesjam”

Posted on August 6, 2010 by tastychops

This a bit of a Youtube favourite of mine. English blues guitarist Scott McKeon laying down a chewy little strat + univibe blues goodness. Really great sound and feel. I think I read somewhere that the univibe is a Roger Mayer Voodoo Vibe Jr and the guitar is an original ’62 Fender Strat. Tasty. Chops.

Eric Gales . . . Doesn’t Get Those Music Store Nerves

Posted on July 23, 2010 by tastychops

You know that feeling you get when you sit down to try out a guitar or amp in a music store? You feel a bit self conscious. You can barely get the guitar in tune. You nervously pop out some lame ass licks…or resort to Stairway or Sweet Child O’ Mine like everyone else. Eric Gales doesn’t have that problem.

Philip Sayce in London

Posted on May 17, 2010 by tastychops

Philip Sayce playing to a small crowd at the 100 Club in London just last week. Great SRV-ish playing and killer strat tone. When he’s not tearing down some slow blues Philip plays sideman to Melissa Etheridge.

Seems like quite a few of the audience members were armed with cams – lots of great vids popping up.

Jeff Beck “Stratus”

Posted on May 12, 2010 by tastychops

Jeff Beck at the New Orleans Jazz Fest last week. The track is Stratus. Word on the street is that all that tone is being pumped out via the little green Fender Pro Junior (cooked up with a Klon) on top of the Marshall quad. If you gots it you gots it.
