NGD-Legator Ghost (with videos)

Haha! :slight_smile:
I know what you mean! I also just want to take the guitar and play right away!

BUT - I think that there were possibly more options than just the model I found on the internet.
And now you mention that - a push-pull knob is often found in coil split models.
So in one position, the pickup sounds more dull (similar to your other guitar?), in the other very bright. Maybe just patiently try the knobs out and listen until you find a tone you like best.

Ok, I’ll leave you in peace now. :slight_smile:
Wishing you lots of fun!
And me, I’ll try to record my ā€œSweet home Chicagoā€ now, uhm… or tomorrow for my Blim4 class, Unit 1. :slight_smile:

That new guitar sounds quite nice, Rogier. I loved the tone in the first video. But yeah, it probably takes some time to get used to the sound of these pick ups. :slight_smile:

By the way, it was great to hear and see you again! :smiley: Keep them coming.

Hi Dominique ,
:blush: I’m definitely going to try it all out,

and how funny that you are working on Sweet Home Chicago, because while you must have typed this, I looked up Justin’s lesson and I was working on it again since my BLIM course for the first time :grinning_face_with_big_eyes: have fun :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Hi Lisa @Lisa_S
Thank you :grinning_face_with_big_eyes:

I think this is the most I’ve ever said on video after the words ā€œFinally JKā€ with greensleeves and ā€œhappy hollidaysā€ :grin:
Talking to a dead thing feels just as uncomfortable as talking to Zoom… the other side may be alive but I don’t feel it :upside_down_face:

I say goodday to you 2 with a big smile :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

:star_struck: Rogier the sound is really good! The tone on video 1 seemed ideal for ambient guitar. Can you please tell me what song are you playing at the end of the video? It makes me so much wanting to sing along but I don’t know what I’m singing :see_no_evil_monkey::joy: I tried with No woman no cry please tell me or I won’t sleep thinking of it :smiling_face: …that little riff!

Rogier, congratulations on the new guitar. I enjoyed your story about the visit to the guitar store and the details of your NGD.

Hi Silvia @Silvia80
Thank you and yes I hear what you say :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

I often play those 4 chords when I’m showing something to someone because it works even with cold fingers/hands and I try to have a fixed tune when I try several guitars to get a more honest picture… I just put it on and my girl next to me still has the same thing on her phone… without me knowing it… not really radio material but it’s funny because it’s the same… C-Am- F- G (I’m going to download it in a moment)

Hi Steve @SteveL_G99
Thank you very much for your nice cooment :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Greetings :sun:

Hi Silvia @Silvia80

Any idea why I can only paste that link and not with the video image?
( edit : always nice when I solve it myself… :sweat_smile: Not that I understand why it is different…just like uploading it to YouTube since today…but I won’t bother anyone else with that :blush:)

Simple C-Am-F-G with some bass notes…also nice on the looper with solo playing

The next one is Yesterday by the Beatles, Justin’s Chord melody version… but I really need to seriously record that… a ā€˜do over’ from a very old AVOYP of mine…
there are some …kuch…boo-boos in here… played on a PRS …

I thought it was very nice one and cheaper than the Legator that I brought home with me…my wife insisted that it also go with me but I couldn’t justify it to my beautiful PRS that is collecting dust here…but is now ready for use again some 10 minutes a day :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Greetings

Hehe, I turn my head for a couple of days, and Rogier goes mental! :open_mouth:
48 comments (and ten times that in views) in one week?!? :exploding_head:
Well, you can just think again, if you expect me to come up with something original to say at this stage…
Still, congratulations are in order, and all the best wishes for the future happy couple duly expressed. I wish you both a long and happy life together :folded_hands:
Worth the purchase alone for seeing my friend rock and nearly roll out of his chair with his enthusiastic playing :grinning_face_with_big_eyes:
Please consider this acknowledgement for reading your Rock on wheels thread as well. I note you are becoming suspicious regarding bots, and would hate to feed the paranoia… :wink:

I’m sure lots of songs use this progression but you could try ā€˜Stand By Me’

Hi Rachel @Libitina
Thank you for your comment :grinning_face_with_big_eyes: and that you like it
:smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Ooo Brian @brianlarsen
:joy:

:blush: … :upside_down_face: … :innocent:

All those people I congratulated for an NGD in all its forms… then it is still quiet here :blush:

Surely there is something mean to say or see instead of all the praise that these dear people shower me in… so to speak, a ā€œhealthyā€ counterbalance :joy: :rofl:

:face_blowing_a_kiss:

:smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

To feed it more ??? :scream: no no no , you (or anyone else) won’t be able to do that, I’m at the maximum level of my suspicion :sweat_smile:… ooo please let that be true… only a new guitar can give me peace of mind with more of that bots and other phishing things crxp …
or a profiler amplifier beast thingy would help too I read :roll_eyes:( the Justin amp ) … but I already find the trio + a challenge so I will put that out of my mind for now :grin:

That sounds very strange when I sing that about my ā€œownā€ piece :roll_eyes: :joy:

Thank you all and wishing you a nice playing day :smiling_face_with_sunglasses: :sun:

Well ,I didn’t see that one coming…good spotted Gordon :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:and with a good chance that I screw it up Make it my own :roll_eyes: I thought it would be fun to figure this one out by ear as quickly as possible… because my wife is working at home this afternoon because of expected ice rain so I’ve been displaced from my spot a bit…and I never practice with her in the room…I play, but I don’t practice…

just practiced the bass line for a few minutes and one take video… :grinning_face_with_big_eyes: and I was happy for this moment because fortunately the cat was in participating… :grin:

Silvia @silvia and Gordon @sairfingers … I placed in my LL because most people are done here and I find it too much fun so as not to accidentally come across later :grinning_face_with_big_eyes:

Greetings
