David Gilmour’s Les Paul tone with P90 pickups and a Boss BD-2

[@s.ri.1020]

Great demo. Love your t-shirt.

[@DennisWever]

Thank you so much!

[@Hhenriette]

great demo.

[@DennisWever]

Thanks a ton!

[@ringthane69]

Really, really, REALLY like this song dude. As a bass player I'd love to lay down a line with it; as an engineer I would love to mix this. Came for the tone, stayed for the song -- GREAT JOB! (also, you wearing my favorite band's t-shirt didn't hurt 😛 )

[@jimi272]

yeah right, its really good!!

[@DennisWever]

Thank you so much! That really means a lot to me. I'm always looking for other people to make this kind of music with. Do you have Facebook? Maybe we can connect there and discuss a collaboration.

[@DennisWever]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!

[@TheTubeDude]

Thank you. I needed this reminder of how great my 1997 BD2 is. Now if I can only find it.

[@DennisWever]

This is why I do what I do. Have fun!

[@Mike-rw2nh]

P-90 + BD-2 = SUB. Tasty playing too. 🫡

[@DennisWever]

You're too kind. Really appreciate it!

Thanks!

Hi Dennis, thank you for this video. By the way, which song is this?

[@DennisWever]

Glad you like it! The song is something I came up with for this video, but since it reminded me of the song “dogs” I took the lyrics from that.

[@mckylecfc]

​@@DennisWeversounded inspired by Wicked Games but hey sweet tone for sure! 🎵🎶👍🏼

Very good Job

[@DennisWever]

Thank you so much

Hello can you please elaborate on how you got the organ/ keyboard tone? Thank you. Did you do the drums in software? Excellent work all along!

[@DennisWever]

Yeah, sure! I'm not really a keyboard player, so there are probably people with more authority on the subject than me. But in basically all of my videos, I use the stock B3 plugin that comes with Logic Pro X. I adjust the drawbar settings to taste and run it through a delay. The drums are from EZdrummer 3. I sometimes hook up a Roland V-drums and play basic stuff myself, and sometimes I program the drums (like in this particular video). Thank you so much for your kind words. I really appreciate it!

[@r2b2ramanb-eu5gz]

@@DennisWever Thank you sir! You guitar solo was truly heart piercing, any chance you would be able to tab this out? I worked out that you chord progression was around the line of Em, G, D. This is exactly the type of music I am trying to produce. I am a self learner, and use youtube as a primary source to pick up these tricks. Alas, most of the videos are geared towards doing pop/synth/hiphop. I would love to connect with you to be mentored! Wishing you the best.

awesome

[@DennisWever]

Thanks a lot!

[@mark7166]

Do you find the string butler works well? I installed one on my SG a few years ago and it was awful for some reason. It actually seemed to make the tuning stability WORSE. Although, I've found a way to keep it in tune pretty well now, so oh well!

[@DennisWever]

Yes absolutely. Although this particular guitar also has an amazing set up to begin with. The string butler completes that. Even the dreaded G string issues are completely gone.

[@mark7166]

@@DennisWever lucky you! I do t know what the problem was with mine. Maybe I got a dud.

[@BuckBarker]

You did a great job. However, that guitar sounds nothing like the Gilmore Strat! Also, he uses reverb, Phase 90, delay, and a univibe. His tone is much cleaner as well. I hope all have a happy and healthy day. Cheers!!

[@DennisWever]

Thanks man! It’s meant to sound like his lesser known Les Paul sounds.

[@BuckBarker]

@ I had no idea. That said , disregard my comment. You’re the first one I’ve seen on here that builds tracks. (Other than Dovyos) I can’t remember how to spell his name???? I also build tracks. I write songs, record them, mix and master, and make CD’s and give them away. I’ve always been reluctant to up load onto social media. But recently , I added 14 songs to KZbin @Larry Buck Barker Original Songs. If interested, check them out. I would appreciate some criticism. I hope you have a happy and healthy day. Cheers!!

[@georgepanayotidis1494]

I feel like the guitar is rather quiet compared to the rest of the band. Which is weird bc the BD2 stands out in the mix exceptionally

[@DennisWever]

I agree. Out of fear of the cliché of a guitar player mixing the guitars too loudly, I ended up mixing it too low.

[@Mitch-Master]

Sounds good. 4 real mon

[@DennisWever]

Thank you so much!

[@ChrisShortyAllen]

Good effort. For me the lead tone was too thick and low.

[@DennisWever]

Thank you! To be honest that's what I was aiming for sound wise, and it's probably why David used his Les Paul with P90s sometimes instead of his trusted Stratocaster.
