@ramencurry6672 3 ай бұрын

I could be wrong but I think he intentionally plays Squire as an artistic statement. That said, it kind of is an inside secret that Squires actually really are good guitars especially if it’s properly set up and well maintained or modded.

Gotta love the touch he puts to this song. I've played AT Blue Sky my entire adult life! And I say play AT, because I've pulled this off with pretty much the entire AB groove. But listening to Jack's feel is exactly what this tune needed to refresh the same chill "Eat A Peach" rendition...and this shit is working! Although, I still try and replicate the note for note...just to get the rush from managing to play to play through without too many missed notes! Always great to hear great music from a different perspective!

Fun fact: Jack Pearson plays a stock Fender Squire. Factory pickups etc. For those who don't know, Squire is the "affordable" line of Fender guitars much like Gibson's Epiphone line. In other words, Jack Pearson gets a legendary guitar tone out of a cheap guitar made in China and Indonesia. This guy has a touch that's lighter that a butterfly wearing slippers.

Holy smokes. Came here from the Rhett Schull video. The guy’s totally as advertised. Really made this - one of my favorite songs but also one where neither Duane nor Dickey plays a single note out of the major scale - and really takes it somewhere special. And I think I own that very guitar and it’s really true that it’s not just a great cheap guitar but a great guitar. There’s something about those pickups (I think that’s the Classic Vibe ‘66 in Lake Placid Blue) that just makes them work, especially for a guy like that who has such a soft touch and gives his tone some space.
