Plastic Love (Mariya Takeuchi) Guitar Cover

[@oliverqiu_]

here's a guitar tab of this cover! oliverqiu.com/sheetslessons/pdfs/plasticloveguitar.pdf outside of the solo, I didn't include all the little bends/slides/licks that I played, as they are more improvised, and will come to you naturally. thanks for listening and enjoy!!

[@Quimerateck]

[@oliverqiu_]

thank u!! was just using my phone (lg g7) for the video (sunlight helps) and was recording my guitar direct into my focusrite 2i2 😁

[@tkattacks]

[@pmo032744]

I love this so much, what amp do you use?

[@oliverqiu_]

no amp :) straight into my focusrite 2i2

[@fregly2604]

this tone is amazing, what amp/ effects are you using

[@oliverqiu_]

thanks! nothing much it's a very clean/dry tone: direct into my focusrite 2i2, and a little bit of compression/reverb in ableton

[@lilika.le._]

Heyyy😊 I would like to start guitar but I’m a little bit lost.. when I heard you playing I thought “I wanna do this” but I don’t know any therms yet and differences between brands still complicated for me 😖 could you give me some advices please..?😔

[@oliverqiu_]

yay! that's awesome - hmm there's alot of info out there I would recommend checking out this video for a broad overview kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnTPpoehZ8qnr5Y from my personal tastes/experiences I would recommend to you a squier guitar and a fender champion 20 amp 😊

[@lilika.le._]

Oliver Qiu thank you very much!!😊😊

[@bigmacvinny3009]

I was wondering if you have a tab for this? I struggle with reading music sheets and hearing you wants to make me learn the song, but I can't.

[@oliverqiu_]

i feel you on that, tabs may be on the way soon, but a good starting point is the Dm pentatonic scale on guitar

[@oliverqiu_]

just posted those tabs in the pinned comment!

[@artlife0619]

City pop in jazz ver.

[@arlenkwong2598]

dude it sounds really good but why did you hide the squier headstock?

[@oliverqiu_]

just a joke with some friends it's not a fender 😅😭

[@arlenkwong2598]

Oliver Qiu No shame in playing squier I love my squier instruments ha ha

[@_takoyashitrash_3243]

ayyyboi

[@lll8638]

How is your tone so full and round

[@oliverqiu_]

so my signal chain is just my squier tele -> focusrite 2i2 2nd gen -> ableton with very very slight compression and eq, reverb/delay but the secret is my pick, a bluechip tpr50 (a $35 pick 😮) - it sounds like a ripoff, but it really is magical, check some demos on youtube

[@lll8638]

@@oliverqiu_ Wow I never heard of that pick before. I'll look for it

[@burgballs5780]

what strings do you use?

[@oliverqiu_]

standard ernie ball slinky 10s :)

[@emal7484]

thats so greaaat!! one question is this the natural sound of the guitar or are you using pedals? i love the chilly sound

[@oliverqiu_]

thank u :D yeah it's just my guitar DI sound with some very slight reverb/delay stuff especially for clean tones I just love plugging straight into my interface

[@efecz]

@@oliverqiu_ how do you add delay and reverb to sound coming from your sound card by direct monitoring?

[@oliverqiu_]

@@efecz I forget which I did for this video, but if I'm using direct monitoring it's dry and I'm adding effects afterwards, or I'll use the monitoring in my DAW so I can hear the effects - I run my 2i2 at 32 buffer size so latency is like 5ms

[@efecz]

@@oliverqiu_ thx a lot dude, i love titanic rising album btw

[@jobama1980]

What pedals do you use?

[@oliverqiu_]

no pedals or amp, direct into my interface with a small amount of compression, eq, delay, reverb :)

[@jobama1980]

​@@oliverqiu_ The tone on your teli is amazing, I have the exact same guitar but with a custom retro anime pickguard. Keep up the great work man!

[@cjrodriguez9346]

what's ur amp, and the effects u used?:0

[@oliverqiu_]

no amp, direct into interface with a very small amount of compression/eq/reverb :)

[@kalashchan1047]

Why the tape covering the headstock? Your playing is beautiful! Hide nothing!

[@oliverqiu_]

haha just an old joke with some friends about my the squier logo, thanks

[@WorldFamousSecret]

very nice guitar man! yo i'm wondering though, how did you get that verified music checkmark thing next to your name? i thought you needed like 100k subs and be a verified channel to get that?

[@oliverqiu_]

thanks! if you use a music distribution service like distrokid or cdbaby, they usually have an option to request official artist channel verification 😁

[@thammy_ndlovu]

I love this man, clean tone! What guitar is that?

[@oliverqiu_]

thanks!! it's just a cheap squier classic vibe telecaster 😅

[@aeceath]

Can you put out a tutorial?

[@oliverqiu_]

check my pinned comment for a tab in the meantime :)

[@plasticvideotape]

How much music theory did you study from the time you started till now?

[@oliverqiu_]

hmm can't say i ever really "studied" music theory - just picked things up over like the last 3-4 years learning and writing music. imo all of the "knowledge" i have can definitely be learned in a few days but ear training/pattern recognition comes with time 😀

[@yosephlaiyan6984]

Is that tokai or fender u using ?

[@oliverqiu_]

squier 😅

[@713kai4]

how long do you pratice guitar ?

[@oliverqiu_]

honestly kinda tough to answer, I don't really have a set practice routine right now or anything, if anything playing piano and violin a bit as a kid got me the little technical ability I have today 😂

[@Numaruikun]

What type of guitar is that?

[@oliverqiu_]

squier classic vibe telecaster :)
