@@frankmontis Just came in. It is small. Has a nice horn driver and a 15" neo bass speaker, a fan inside. Very tweakable, foot bass notes are weak on the lower end, no subwoofer output. Does sound pretty good. Different from the Leslie 3300 tone wise. You know you can get a 11 pin to 6 pin adaptor from Leslie or Hammond for your 142 to use with your XK5 or you Soul 261.

So I just started this course and am absolutely blown away. The first etude is helping me with left hand bass, hand independence, and groove. And Frank has given me a couple of excellent tips. I highly recommend this course. My biggest challenge is to take my time and truly master each etude so it becomes part of my vocabulary. I'm goin g to try one a week rather than rush to get through them. Thanks Frank!

@@frankmontis I'm gonna fire you feedback right away 4,5, and 6 are out of sync. Beyond that there are definitely a few details missing like walkups in the left hand to the V int he first couple, some of the grace notes in melodies, and (most notably) all the flicks and life you add around 1/4 note walking bass - but that's not the biggest deal as the video is solid and we can loop it all. Good stuff!
@frankmontis 2 ай бұрын
I’ll check what’s going on with the out of sync ones. I can probably fix that. I am in the process of recoding all of them again anyway in my latest setup , so I’ll be replacing all vids soon, you’ll see when that happens :) As far as some walkups and grace notes are concerned: that is intentional. I usually advice my students to leave the lead sheets and just listen and watch. The music notation is extra but mainly for reference. I never write down ghost notes/ grace notes. I consider the material to be part a f a language, and I feel free to add stuff or leave stuff out. When you write down grace notes or ghost notes people focus too much on them which takes away from groove and/or swing. It’s better to keep things simple and straightforward at first and once you are getting ‘the language’ and feel the groove the grace and ghost notes ( and substitute chords and whatever else ) sneaks into your playing as if it had always been there :). Anyway, thanks for the feedback Levi !

Hehe, that is cool.... "lLeslie Nielsen" without "Niels" but with Frank on organ..... ;) Funny, I originally founded "Leslie Nielsen" together with Niels Spee back in 2001 in Berne, switzerland. Then Niels moved back to the netherlands, together with his 1963 Hammond C3 organ where he teamed up with Bas and Salle. I had no luck finding a replacement for him and did some other projects but after 2006 I stopped doing live gigs and the guitar became a nice hobby until 2023 when I discovered that it still fun to play .......and now, in the age of 45, I want to learn to play the organ myself (as a guitarist). So I checked out some "clonewheel demos" on YT and found Viscount and Crumar the most pleasing ones. And now I discovered you....wow! Consider myself as a new "fan" of yours! PS: I don't own a organ yet, because I just started (2 weeks ago) doing some finger excercises on the piano first (Carl Czerny Etudes) before moving to the organ.... playing (jazz) guitar and understanding about harmony will help too...... it's late, but it's never too late.... ;-)

@@frankmontis Yesterday I went to my local musicstore to check them out - the Mojo 61 together with the lower manual and the Legend Soul 261 - the Mojo has out of the box the better leslie sim with some nice overdrive, but the keybed of the Viscount Legend Soul is at another level, feelwise! Plus I can use my VB3-II plugin on the Legend Soul whenever I like or use an external leslie later.....atm I'm getting familiar with the instrument and having so much fun. But I guess, I'll go the Viscount route - the feel playing on it is just second to none..... PS: I got your blues etude soundslice course, but I still work on my own spin of your Jimmy McGriff 6th to 3rd simple blues YT clip and Chris Hazleton's version of "the groove merchant" which I currently transcribe. :D If you ever play in switzerland, let me know.

Goudsmit is my favorite guitarist in all of Jazz. He can tell a story, he can convey emotion, he has dynamics, so much better than any of the big names from Wes Montgomery. I just was listening to some Holdsworth and had to come back to this video to re-humanify. Metheny is closer to this direction but still nowhere near. Just not to be a fanboy: this track has a couple notes where Goudsmit plays a minor 7th where I'd have played a major (if I could play even 1/10th as well).

@frankmontis 3 ай бұрын
Well, the irony here is that the overdrive is nothing but real. It is coming from the 142 vintage Leslie . When connecting a real Leslie with the 11-pin connector the overdrive of the pre-amp section of the organ was turned off back when I created this video. So there is no overdrive from the organ here. Now, at my request months ago that overdrive IS available when using a Leslie .
