Having fell in love with Samantha Fish (don’t tell the missus) I’ve had this gaseous itch for a 'lecky Cigar Box. Its her track Bulletproof amongst others and her Wild Child “course” that got me thinking, 13 really is an unlucky number. Been hearing a lot of good things about Matteacci’s and the one who must be obeyed, has been giving me earache about St Vs that’s next week apparently ! Tumbled (well not really) onto this 4 string JD single coil pup jobbie and the next thing I knew Paypal had done a x 4 payment scheme. Honest guv twas an accident.
ETA unknown but I’ve already go a damn stoopid grin on my face. I just need to fess up in a few minutes and maybe buy some flowers
Looks like a lot of fun Toby. Looking forward to hearing it when you’ve got some chords worked out.
If that SF video is anything to go by, you’ll need two mics. One for the verses and one for the chorus.
ps. And if you frame your video carefully we won’t see the pink stilettos.
Hi Toby,
Have fun with the expectation of your new toy and matching footwear if I understand correctly a if I read quickly.
When I saw her playing a while ago on this I also wanted that (a guitar like that,such shoes I have of course:blush:)…but I decided to play with a slide first, which should come next month…but in time guitar like that one
Greetings…
Mon ami, if I thought a four-string single pickup cigar box would help the sound of my guitar playing, I’d be all over it like a rash…
I shall watch your output with even more…
Nice one Toby, you’re gonna have fun with that! Plenty of dirt and a slide is highly recommend plus open D tuning; give it some bro’
As regards Sam, phwooooaaaarrrr, she’s seriously certainly gets the sap rising
Well, now, Toby. A new adventure of sure! Be curious to see what you do with that box.
I have been lucky enough to see Samantha Fish a few times. She rocks and can play blues with the best.
Guess I need to thank @stitch for setting the tone here but I’d happily wear those stilettoes to play like her ! In the meantime I have been sourcing some Justin Johnson 4 string tuts and have been pleased with what I have found so far, along with Ms Fish’s course, which covers a whole lot more.
What’s more when the invoice arrived the price had been dropped by 22 euros, each guitar comes with a free glass bottle neck slide and I’d not spotted the cool dice knobs for volume and tone.
Only downside, was my wife was disappointed when I explained it was not a resonator.
Mmmm I’d better get that thought out of my head,
Thanks for all the comments peeps. I’ll keep you updated when there’s more news !
Glad to see a mention of Samantha Fish. She is one of my guitar heroes. I was very lucky to watch her live just a few months back and oh my gosh what a talent. She is an incredible guitarist but her singing is no less impressive.
@TheMadman_tobyjenner congrats on the new guitar. It looks amazing, do not leave us without pics when it arrives!
I was sure I’d seen you in here before
