I havent been playing as much as normal, so it's very sloppy, and my ear isnt as good as before. But I havent uploaded anything in a while, so tell me what you think.
Thanks guys.

Top playing mate, if thats sloppy i might as well jack in now!! Il oved your dynamics, they really bring out the style of the solo, great stuff mate!!

.. i will do another take, inspired by TJ and will steal some of your chops !! Some really tasty playing, especially at the beginning.
Man, i love your sound .. you use a pod, right? Do you mind to upload your patch? Did you used your BB preamp for this? I have heard this box on different videos and really like the sound.
Great TJ, each time i hear your takes reminds me to work on my vibrato !!

Just great, tjchep. I love your sound, vibrato and chops. Everything shows that you have good chances to become an awesome (even famous) musician, I think. I have nothing to complain about. It was interesting to listen to, there were slow parts where you used some strong notes and there were fast runs which were really clean. Well done, mate!

It's uploaded somewhere... Tchjep_metalrhythm2 or something.... Check the Important Gear pages, on the top of the Gear thread, and click the Line6 link. My experience was that it's also in the PU's, guitar and playing style, because I couldn't get Tchjep's sound, using the patch

Man, I am so jealous! You got some serious talent. Keep doing your thing, it's great

Excellent playing TJ.....I really gotta work on my phrasing. You and Andy and Jeff are light years ahead of me on that stuff......
Good job man!!!

Ah, Thanks Kaznie .. i remember to have seen it somewhere. Yeah true, patches always sound a bit different with other gear and i'm afraid TJ's vibrato is not a default setting in his patch .. . I use a lot Marcus Lavendel's pod file, sounds completely different on my guitar, but it was a good starting point for adjustments.

MY patch has changed quite a bit from that, I did use the BB preamp for a boost here over a clean patch.

I'm flattered man, you've been showing some HUGE improvement over the last year, and I have a feeling you are going to go a ways if you keep playing the way you do man

Thanks man, you gotta really listen to what's inside of you, leaving technique and stuff out of the picture and just play from the heart. I try and do that, and when I can.. I get some great results
But really, you're phrasing is still pretty good man, and your legatooo is smmoooooth

Thanks for the patches TJ .. I will test the BB preamp somewhere, .. i was hesitating by now. The store price is quite high here for this little orange box

Yeah, myn was a gift from a close friend.
I really like it. But only if you can comfortably spend that money!

I´m flattered as well. Thanks, that´s kind.

Great playing, TJ. Where can I find this backing track?
On another note, I've seen a lot of improvement from you during the time I've "followed" your progress. Whereas I'm heading backwards, due to almost not playing at all, you are definately getting there and finding your own sound and phrasing.
Posted by: Ivan Milenkovic Jul 12 2009, 11:00 PM
Great tone TJ! You are very talented, keep rocking man!

Late to comment but this made me sign in, Just really great playing.
I remember some of your older videos and its amazing how far you've come.
You should post your practice routine or something like that because whatever your doing is really working

Not practicing is seeming to work. Kidding
I've never had a practice routine honestly - and don't believe in them really. Really what i'm saying is I don't think practicing should be exclusive to.. practicing, and I feel that if you are playing music for the right reasons then everything will fall into place. Make your music as much as you can, and after doing that for a while everything you need to make your music will fall into place.

Nice playing! Perfect sound and vibrato! What kind of effects do you use?

Just some delay and reverb. I use a pod for the normal clean sound, with a BB on top for the gainier thing.
