I can see from the video that these things are progressing in my skill set. Like all other techniques they take some work though. When I first listened to this and compared it with Piotr's I realized how bright my tone was compared to the original. So I EQ'ed it by cutting the highs above 5K. Still the end result has a brighter tone than yours Piotr. Tell us how you got this tone. Was it the tone knobs on the guitar, the amp, after recording, or all three?

Your sound is perfect and I could feel your playing not just hearing it! The only thing that was a little weird is a fast part at 0:39 it sounded rushed a little It is 10 from me anyway!

Even though your tone is different it still works very well.. that Strat sound is just perfect for this kind of tune.

I almost always turn the treble knob to around 9, 10 o'clock, midle knob to 2 or 3 o'clock. I often cut all the frequency over 12kHz and always add the magic PSP Vintage Warmer plugin. If you have any question about my settings just PM me. Cheers! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
