beautiful clean tone

[@RomanianJazzHole]

The tone reminds me a lot of Allan Holdsworth. Great job Tory, love the vibe of the tune ❤

[@TruthSurge]

dayum, that guitar sound is MOLTEN. wow. I think that is your best clean sound to DATE. Nice soloing, too! 2:14 Greg Howe licks! One of my fav vids so far. It is more accessible (to me) with a definite structure, cool chord changes and a glassy clear clean with an amazing solo. very, very good! Oh and the finger drumming was great too!

[@paulauksztulewicz4803]

If Allan heard this be would be stoked because it’s “Tory” and it sounds like her. He was not a fan of people playing like “him”. But here it’s the level of Gary Husband on finger drums and “Tory” on guitar! Marvelous! 🤘🏻

[@TorySlusher]

Both players that I really like... Huge compliment, thanks. I think that Holdsworth created sort of a new approach to clean chordal playing. That kind of sound, it's sort of just as revolutionary as people doing what Hendrix did with a Stratocaster, in my opinion

[@Gregorypeckory]

[@paulauksztulewicz4803]

The overdrive tone I was wondering about. Allan would have too amps, one clean and one overdriven and run them both at the same time.

[@TorySlusher]

No, this is just the exact same clean tone I use for all of the straight ahead Jazz stuff only with an mxr super badass distortion in front of it. That particular pedal has bass mid and treble controls, and it's very creamy compared to other pedals

[@theelectric8548]

[@RobTackettCovers]

That was spectacular, Tori. I'm 62, and am glad I learned like "70's, 80's, 90's rock stuff, but because of learning to play like that, I found it difficult to learn anything different...as an example, I played in a country band for a while, and was tasked with playing the solo in Liza Jane from Vince Gill, and really struggled with it...had to do hours and hours to eventually get it in the ball park, and it's still not exact, but I think anything I'm doing in that solo is a very good alternative. There's another guy that I've watched, and I don't even know his name, but he has an approach similar to yours, except he does his deal with his fingers mostly, and very rarely utilizes his thumb as far as the picking hand goes...to me, it's what ever the best way a person can do it, and get it done well. I'm bringing him up, because to me, you are every bit as good, if not, better than he is (just an opinion, of coarse). Now I'll get off of that, and get back to your left hand mode of operation, because I think it would be easier for me to apply that to my playing, because I grew up doing finger style stuff, like Paul Simon's tunes, so got accustomed to playing guitar with my thumb and fingers when not using a pick...I think I"ll start with a video of yours, the Way beyond just tapping one, and maybe slow it down to see what you're doing and not have my brain lock up, hahaha! Thanks for posting your progress, and hope you and yours are doing great. Editing in: It appears that isn't your video...you are in it, but it's a guitar teacher that is promoting you, hahaha! Well, I guess I'll watch it, but...ha!

[@TorySlusher]

It's interesting, the country thing kind of came instantaneous for me after just playing a telecaster for a while... The style in that pickup configuration kind of go hand in hand a bit

[@RobTackettCovers]

@@TorySlusher Maybe that's what's wrong; I've never owned a Telecaster, hahaha!

[@Azihayya]

@@TorySlusher Not to mention the badass factor.

[@markhammer643]

Clean sprightly picking, as always. And the Holdsworth/Johnson lineage is the kind of thing you don't really have to tell anyone about, unless it is to direct the attention of the underinformed to those players. I've often dreamed about having what I like to call "dash drums". Imagine a pair of membrane switch strips mounted on the steering wheel, *between* "10 and 2", so that hands can be placed *at* 10 and 2 (as recommended). The membrane strips connect to a unit that one's car audio system plugs into, and allow one to play the drums along with the music while waiting for a light change, parked, or other *safe* moment. I mean, as great a kick drum tone as vinyl/leather-covered seats can provide, they get bloody HOT; too big a price to pay for a kick drum sound. And the dashboard and driver door have their sonic moments, too, but they make lousy snares and cymbals. Having an entire drum kit at your fingertips would make a country drive wonderful!

[@TorySlusher]

I like being able to play drums outside, LOL... Or you know, easily move the entire kit with one hand

Brilliant playing and ideas. Was giving me Holdsworth vibes but still different. 🔥

[@TorySlusher]

Thanks, well I was kind of going for that... Allan's whole approach for me is kind of like one way of orchestrating a certain type of tune, or any tune, it's like a matched set of sounds. So you can be doing that and then slip into a whole other thing, etc... like the whole thing about Miles Davis talking about "mood in music".... The hidden aesthetics to the art form, knowing who to cop from etc and what....

You are...unique. One of the many things I appreciate about you is your extraordinary vision, yoking together disparate elements into a cohesive poetic whole. Your drumming! Your guitar playing! Your bass! Your writing! Your synthesizing (not as in using a synthesizer)! Most of us shy away from Holdsworthian compositional notions and approaches. But you are filtering him through your own soul, in camaraderie, unbound by convention. You remind me (please take this as a compliment) of Commmander Data bringing together many great historical violin players in his own unique blend/approach: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIacoaVtot-mo7c

[@gabigolescu]

Metheny meets Holdsworth meets Howe meets .... .... 😵‍💫

[@TorySlusher]

Yeah kind of...

[@ValirAmaril]

Trying to figure out the chords rn

[@blueeyedsoulman]

Could you describe how you made the clean tone in the GP-10 ? I'm guessing chorus and something else? Which guitar model did you use?

[@TorySlusher]

Okay, so I think I started with one of the presets that was already on there... Then I switched the pickups to modern bright humbucker bridge position, and then I think I have like a direct signal blended with some type of amp? There's a very slight chorus, I was imitating all of the multistacked delays... So there is a bit of a reverb and then the delay setting is where the action is, there's just like a big Long trail of multi delays... And then you know, just the right amount of compression so that it has more of a keyboard like attack and decay, the reverb is what is really adding kind of the pad ambience, aside from the delays, which kind of generate the sound if that makes me sense...

[@fusionpete333]

Your guitar sound is so good. Very Holdsworth, but not exactly - at the same time.

[@blueeyedsoulman]

Any tutorials on these "different" chords? pdf?

[@TorySlusher]

I need to do a video on more advanced chord progression construction, complex chords, polytonal chords, all kinds of things... This would include all of these macro things to progressions, based on voice leading - top down as well as - bottom up concepts, like what Giant steps is based on, for example

[@blueeyedsoulman]

@@TorySlusher That would be great. Harmonies are my favorite part but the finger drumming is really no-holds-barred. Of course there's no-Holdsworth-barred either lol.

[@ricopaxton]

Maybe an unrelevant question, do you have more than one gk3 pickup or are you switching the one from the Strandberg(s) to the Fender(s)? Dunno, just came to my mind. If you just got one, the community should start a petition to get you one or two extra promo-devices from Roland. You'd totally deserve this is anyway and Patreon is no opotion. That's for rent, booze and cigarettes.
