Now that my ability to embed has been proven, using Jimi Hendrix in another thread,
I'll retitle a video I made of me playing electric guitar and call it "Variations of A minor Scalar Activity"
I start off trying to get a feel for this guitar, playing double note leads from the Allman Brothers "Blue Skies".
I know, I know, I'm using too much distortion for that, messing around with some imitation steel guitar chords,
and then I start playing some lead guitar in A minor.
Over three minutes long.
This isn't a very good presentation, and this Samsung camera is an indoor portrait camera,
with a mild fish-eye lens, making me look heavier and shorter than I am.
I telephoned my domain build tech in New Brunswick to get embedding advice,
not embedding in my own johnwatt.ca domain or my previous music domain.
A previous thread I started, where I want to put up videos of me jamming with onacarom videos,
can now become a reality.
This is a serious move for me, pushing my musical boundaries, jamming along with your poetic videos.
I can hardly wait to jam along with a Frederik Magle video.
I see you commented on the one video of me jamming along with you,
saying I had a nice guitar tone. That's a 1972 DiMarzio P.A.F. Humbucker, my best pickup.
It took a while before I found a tone that I thought worked with your sound,
and were I was sitting it was a nice mix, but I was too loud for the camera.
When my new left-handed mail order unfinished guitar gets finished, I'll put it in there.
I'm always having my hand on the tremolo unit, really missing it here.
