[@justinainsworth6264]

It's bc he uses the controls on the guitar and pick attack to get the sound he wants in his head. Something amp model/settings alone cannot achieve. Guitar volume never on 10 is huge for Joe's tone it allows the fundamental of the note to shine through better.

He never mentions the maestro Peter Green. Peter had a direct connection from a higher power. It’s no surprise Jimmy page Modded his les Paul gifted by Joe Walsh to emulate greens sound (page mentions in 2005 interview) and BB King regarded him as a goat

[@These_go_to_eleven_1959]

@@situationunchanged9733 To me and from what Bonamassa said himself what makes the old guitars "Better is a combination of things. The materials used back then which were of a higher grade not like the cheaper stuff most use these days. and also the guitar has been played a LOT! So the parts are aging from playing it, the parts are a better grade and things like that is what makes them sound warmer and richer. There is nothing wrong with a Murphy Lab aged Les Paul but the aging was not done by playing it. That is why those old Japan made Les paul's from Greko, Burny,etc sound as good as a Gibson. the Japanese were using the same exact materials to build them and they used actual Gibson's to make them.

The Fish 'n Chip analogy! Brilliant.

[@DanielVerberne]

I love playing the blues as a guitarist. However, I love it the most when it's just an aspect of the musical 'language' as opposed to being the main style on offer. Think of almost solo by guitarist Joe Satriani and you get a good idea of what I like - the moods conjured using the modes, soloing over chord changes, but when employing 'blue notes', bends, double-stops and other things out of the blue trickbag to bring excitement and attitude. Again, it's where blues is providing a critical ingredient without being the only thing on the menu.

The speed that Joe can rip pentatonic licks and pick every note, is quite impressive. Very few hammer-ons or pull-offs.

[@user-lv7ph7hs7l]

​@@castleanthrax1833 I wish he'd do it more. Some shred too much and some too little. Joe shreds too little because he sure can do it. But I love the way he does it. You start thinking, does he only play slow blues and bam, 30 notes picked as cleanly as any 80s shredder fly by. And it's hard to shred in pentatonic or blues, I found some cool tips by Ben Eller how to do this STV, Johnson, Wylde, Bonamassa type blues scale shredding, you build it out of patterns that can be played fast and strung together. It takes some doing but it's a lot of fun and there nothing like playing slow blues and being able to add a bit of shredding in to liven it up and it emphasises the slow parts even more. I can't do it well yet but having a lot of fun with blues backing tracks, center position on a 3 way and blending the volumes for the perfect tone and trying to do the occasional Bonamassa style "in case you forgot I can shred" flight across the fingerboard. That along with Ellers technique of just focusing on the "1" with the downstroke and getting that right and the rest of the notes eventually linking up for clean picked notes, has really elevated my playing.

Appreciate the interview and admire those same solos. Have to say though, Beato and JB seem a bit like oil and water on this one. I just don't have Rick pegged as a guy who sits around around listening to a lot of Albert King, as broadminded a fan as he is. If I'm wrong, then in the future, I'd love to see guys like Stevie Vaughan, Jimmie Vaughan and the Fabulous Thunderbirds; Jimmy Thackery, Anson Funderburgh, and all the old masters that all those guys were paying homage to (Howlin Wolf, Muddy Waters, Otis Rush, Freddie, Albert and BB King, Magic Sam, Buddy Guy--the list is endless) get the Beato video treatment. That would shine a light on a ton of wonderful music that perhaps the average music fan isn't hip to. I'd trade most of the videos about how crappy the Top Ten on Spotify are for one or two videos on Little Walter or Hubert Sumlin.
