However Aldo I would be very grateful if you would keep in touch I'm going to set yup a studio like the one you have IE: an Apple comp. alberton 10 soft wear and all other hard wear. As I know crap about these things it would be awesome to have somebody to give me tips and things. Not for free of course nothing but the good things are, yes. later

Aldo, if you ever need a suggestion for a favorite Mick Taylor solo I would humbly request the gorgeous work he did on Winter. It is so so melodic that you can faintly hear Jagger start singing along to Taylor’s guitar melody at about the 4:00 mark. Just magic…

I have an affinity toward the simple which is nothing near simple. Thank you mick, I always loved your music and especially the magic you pull out of your gear. If I could afford to pay the fee you would ask for and hours lesson I would jump at the chance but 10 grand would never cut it. So please keep on showing us your magic brother :-)_~I didn't call you Mick I was talking to the memory lol. Thank you Aldo you are a great teacher.

Finally, the 3rd video I opened, and someone is showing this the correct way to play it. First video was like Guns 'N Roses playin it; all distortion. Second guy, was finger/claw picking and it sounded like James Taylor. About 11 minutes into the video (I didn't watch that much, I clicked ahead to see if it changed, it didn't), the guy looks like he's falling asleep. His eyes looks like he was totally stoned. But here, we finally have a good rendition of the song. I know it, just brushing up on a few parts I may have forgotten. Good job!

You play with a lot feeling brother :) ALSO love the STONES! Would like very much- to hear you play and give an in depth look at the very underrated song Winter.. off of the GHS album. Mick Taylor actually helped to co-write that one and... NEVER got the credit he deserved! Always loved the way the solo- helps tell the story of a very underrated Stones song. The verses of this song are filled with Mick's very tasty guitar phrasing/playing ;) Hope you keep building your channel up. Take care Aldo!

Great lesson, however I don't think Taylor's pickups were out of phase. He used a Gibson 335 with a varitone switch which is a notch filter and thins out the sound. I think he is using one of the settings on the varitone.

Could very well be! Makes for an interesting topic!

I don't think his pickups were out of phase. It was the ampeg amp with its multiple tone switches that gives that sound.

@christophkropp8625 3 жыл бұрын

Hello Aldo, hello anybody! Perhaps anybody can answer to my question? What combination of guitar/pickup / amp / pedal (boost?) could it be Mick Taylor(?) used in Winter from Rolling Stones? I mean not the solo and not the rhythm-guitar but the wonderful singing sound from the guitar interjections (....??) in the background. Sorry, I don't know a better description. I hope you can unterstand what I mean. If the sound comes primarily from the amp-drive: Is it possible to get this sound also with a clean amp (Brunetti Singleman) in combination with a pedal? What do you think about? (And ..... yes I know "The most comes from the fingers"). Sorry for my English, greetings from Germany/Bavaria and thank you ahead to all will answer! Christoph

@AldoSpadaroOfficial 3 жыл бұрын

Ciao Christoph, my guess is that he used a Gibson SG or a Les Paul for that solo. Amp setup could be a deluxe reverb, tweed deluxe or ampeg, even a smaller combo. Combined with a Dallas rangemaster treble booster you get that iconic harmonically rich sound. Note though that many great Stones' sounds are also with a hint of speaker drive and overloading preamp in the recording console and tape recording rig. However with any proper tube amp you can approach the sound by having it dialed in on the edge of breakup and use a pedal or a clean boost to push it over the cliff while slightly cleaning up the low end, leaving a better pronounced mid-range. The trick to a great dynamic lead sound is actually easy, but It's going to be loud, even with a small amp. That's why those many classic great sounds are sought after. They are not 'made' by a pedal in front of the only, but the whole playing and recording chain working together, operating at a sweet spot.
