[@GRequinBlanc]

Great Job

[@underdog531]

Excellent Rhythm, Right On !!!

[@cesargomez8180]

Dude you're really much better than the other covers in youtube, i really enjoy watching your videos, keep uploading my friend!

[@HappyStrat24]

Thanks a lot for your kind words, I really appreciate it. There are many truly great Rolling Stones covers on youtube, way better than mine, but it is true, that there are surprisingly not that many Start Me Up covers.

[@barryhodge7793]

[@foxtrotbravo6517]

Nice job!

[@istemihanvarisli]

This is awesome :)

[@HappyStrat24]

Thank you!

[@HappyStrat24]

Hi, thanks! I haven't actually used any amp on this, the Digitech RP80 does it all, the Digitech goes directly into the computer. The amp was set to U3. U stands for the Vox AC30 simulation I believe, 3 is the ammount of overdrive. That is all, very simple settings. But generally, whatever amp you use, it is just about the right ammount of overdrive. Not too much, actually.

[@bcancun123]

Awesome

[@HappyStrat24]

Thank you!

[@carlsong6438]

That guitar is a thing of beauty

[@HappyStrat24]

[@92gschmidt]

[@vegasspaceprogram6623]

Proof that a squire, to, can rock! Man, living evidence that it's not the guitar, but the player! You got it perfect! Great job

[@HappyStrat24]

Yeah, to be honest, good Fenders are much better, but good Squires are still really great value for the money and I really like this one.

[@Fpag88]

Me encantaaaaa,saludos desde Argentina ;)

[@HappyStrat24]

Thank you!

[@HappyStrat24]

Tumbling Dice is a fantastic song and I HAVE to do it :-) Your video is approved, by the way

[@HappyStrat24]

Thank you, it is the best reward - if my video inspires someone to learn the song!

[@chrisalexmdo]

Nice man

[@HappyStrat24]

Thank you!

[@samkaragiannis5757]

well done young man

[@HappyStrat24]

Sam Karagiannis Thanks!

[@HappyStrat24]

Hi, this was a very simple way of recording - the guitar is plugged into the Digitech RP80 - a very simple multieffect and that goes into computer. No mic, no amp. Not a very good way of recording, but I think the result is not that bad for such a limited gear in this case.

[@68ComebackSpecial]

You played the tried and trusted Tele in Open G tuning too. Impressive stuff!!

[@HappyStrat24]

In this video I actually don't use any amp at all. The guitar is plugged in to the RP 80 (a simple multieffect with amp simulations), which goes directly into the computer. It is not a very good way to do it, but I didn't have a good amp at that time. But all you need for this song is a good valve amp really, no effects.

[@sakdichokn4863]

Nice

[@xpymando]

Thanks for taking the trouble.very enjoyable cheers mate.

[@HappyStrat24]

Thanks a lot!

[@Urankar3]

GOOOD!!!*****

[@Hockeyfan9884]

Just found out that I received most if not all of your vids so far, and am going through them all. You Have Great Talent .Keep on Playing and forget not posting more of the Talent You Have. Awesome Stuff.Best Regards,

[@HappyStrat24]

Thank you very much, I am really glad you enjoy my little efforts :-)

[@Hockeyfan9884]

HappyStrat24 A Very Big Thank You. Is it OK If I Share Your Talent With Friends Of Mine ?

[@HappyStrat24]

Of course, I'll be glad

[@frenchsnooper26]

Good !

[@BrentTheGent1]

Thanks man, you have just helped this old man in one day more than many others that just cant hit a lick without breaking it down instead of just showing from start to end with a clean and casual manner. I thanks you young Sir.

[@taufikkemal6105]

I have to say you did a great job over there

[@HappyStrat24]

Thank you!

[@royston1762]

Honestly. You're so refined with the playing, you should definitely be in a major league band

[@HappyStrat24]

+MyNameIsWillS Thanks a lot for your kind words :-)

[@xXRyan343Xx]

Dope.

[@bladey1010]

Newish guitars usually don't excite me...but this is beautiful Tele! Nice sound and playing too!

[@kfosify]

This is nice as hell.

[@HappyStrat24]

Thank you!

[@MrRaggamuffinrambo]

I never new a squire sound that so good, it sounds better than my American tele.

[@adriaanmoolman9221]

look this guy is good he knows what he is doing

[@HappyStrat24]

Thanks a lot! :-)

[@HappyStrat24]

@pauljdunn Thank you. I rather have a lot to learn, but I think you can prety much learn the song from the video. And there is a lot of great teachers all over youtube :-)

[@santiagolopezfernandez]

though I play it in a slightly different way yours sounds great. Good job.

[@HappyStrat24]

+santiago lopez fernandez Thanks a lot!

[@HappyStrat24]

@Urankar3 Man, it is unbelievable you found this video and posted here - I watched your version of the song when I was learning it.

[@hottom3rd]

I actually enjoy playing drums to these covers. Keep up the good work.. Too bad you don't live closeby, I need people to jam with me that have good taste in music.

[@HappyStrat24]

Thanks! Yea, distance is a problem, yet youtube brings us closer. To a degree :-)

[@Urankar3]

Favorite*********:)))

[@HappyStrat24]

Thans a lot for your comments, I appreciate them. I will post a new song as soon as I learn one :-) It is always about time. I want to do new Stones songs - Tumbling Dice, Happy, Rambler...U2 songs - The Fly, Bad... Right now I am learning Alive from Pearl Jam - great song with killer guitar part, but...the time... :-)
