Squier Bass VI Demo (LaBella Flats + Staytrem)
zhlédnutí 73KPřed 7 lety
Here's a bit of noodling on my recently acquired Squier Bass VI. What a fun hybrid instrument! In addition to re-cutting the nut and leveling the frets I have done the following extensive modifications: -LaBella 767-6F Flatwound strings -Staytrem Wide Bass VI Bridge (9.5" radius) -Emerson CTS 1 meg pots -Orange Drop .047uf cap -Switchcraft 1/4" jack -Schaller straplocks -Fender Classic Player s...
Modified Squier VM Jaguar HH w/ Tele Bridge
zhlédnutí 7KPřed 8 lety
I decided to change up things on my Jaguar and put the stock humbuckers back in, but with a twist to make them as clear sounding as possible. I removed the adjustable poles on the bridge pickup and flipped it so the non-adjustable poles are closer to the bridge (neck pickup is stock), capping off both pickups with white plastic covers. The other changes are as follows: -Fully shielded with copp...
Warmoth/Allparts Jazzcaster w/ Fralin Split Blade Tele Pickups (Blues Output)
zhlédnutí 16KPřed 8 lety
I decided to switch things up on my Jazzcaster and put in a noiseless set of Lindy Fralin Split Blade Tele pickups wound to the "Blues" spec (as well as a new aged pearl pickguard to mount the neck pickup to). The result is a noise-free, super-comfy Tele on steroids. The guitar still has the same Emerson CTS 1 meg ohm pots and .022 mfd Orange Drop cap as before and is strung with .010-.046 gaug...
K&K Pure Resonator BB Pickup Demo
zhlédnutí 12KPřed 8 lety
I just installed a K&K Pure Resonator BB pickup in my Republic biscuit bridge resonator and thought I'd make a demo since there aren't many out there. I installed the jack for the pickup on the lower bout F-hole so I wouldn't have to drill into the guitar. The guitar is strung with .016-.056 gauge Dean Markley Blue Steels in open G. I'm running it through a Fishman Platinum Pro EQ DI with a Lin...

This is one of the Monkee's more unusual tunes, but I thought it would be a fun one to try. GEAR: Squier VM Jaguar HH with GFS Surf 90 pickups, Keeley 4-knob compressor, Boss Giga Delay DD-20, Tech 21 Blonde V2, Radial ProDI straight into my interface.
Squier Jaguar SS Short Scale Bass Demo w/ Duncan Quarter Pound Pickups
zhlédnutí 48KPřed 8 lety
SCROLL DOWN FOR GEAR DETAILS IN DESCRIPTION I've wanted a short scale bass ever since trying out a MIJ Fender Mustang Bass years ago, but could never justify the purchase on account of the two excellent Jazz Basses I own. That said, I couldn't get over how light and easy to play that Mustang was. After selling my partscaster P-Bass, I decided to fill it's spot with this little guy. It's a short...
Heart Shaped Box - Nirvana (solo acoustic cover)
zhlédnutí 3,8KPřed 8 lety
It's been a long time since my last video as I have been super busy this year (new job, new apartment, wedding gigs every weekend, etc.) but I thought I'd share this one I've had on the back burner for a while. The guitar is an '08 Fender MIM Standard Strat that only has a passive Graph Tech Ghost passive piezo system installed and .010-.047 gauge Elixir acoustic strings. It's running through a...
Fracture - Bombay Bicycle Club (solo lap steel arrangement)
zhlédnutí 2,3KPřed 9 lety
This is another instance of me hearing a song on the radio at work and getting the bug to do a cover of it. I just thought it was a very meditative song and felt compelled to give it a go. I'm playing the "El Cheapo" Mitchell dreadnought with an L.R. Baggs M1 in it tuned to open Ebsus2 (open E down a half step with the third string tuned to the major 2nd instead of major 3rd).
Strat w/ passive Graphtech Ghost undersaddle pickups demo
zhlédnutí 46KPřed 9 lety
GEAR DETAILS IN DESCRIPTION BELOW I decided to turn my '08 MIM Standard Strat into a solid-body acoustic with passive electronics so I could have a durable, easy playing, feedback-free, electric-acoustic for gigs. Why passive? Because I prefer to run things off of AC/phantom power when possible and to keep the guitar simple. In fact, it's so simple that the only wiring in the guitar is a set of...
Squier VM Jaguar HH w/ GFS Surf 90 pickups demo
zhlédnutí 33KPřed 9 lety
READ THE DESCRIPTION FOR FULL GEAR DETAILS!!! soundcloud.com/edricco I bought this Squire Jag last summer and have played it extensively since then for gigs and recording sessions. While I almost immediately swapped the concentric knobs for CTS 500k pots with the "50's wiring" scheme (I'm a master volume/master tone only kind of guy), I kept the stock humbuckers in until yesterday. I decided th...
Had To Cry Today - Blind Faith (solo lap steel arrangement)
zhlédnutí 3,3KPřed 9 lety
It's been too long since my last video, but I have been very busy gigging as of late. As usual, I was messing around on my lunch break at work and this song happened to pop into my head. I'm playing my trusty el cheapo Yamaha FD01S lap steel conversion with an L.R. Baggs M1A in it tuned to open C#. I took some liberties with the chord progression to make it better suit the instrument so this is...

soundcloud.com/edricco It has been a while since I've done a video, but two exciting new things have been added to my fleet. First, you'll notice this video is in HD on account of the new Macbook Air and Presonus Audiobox 44VSL I just bought. Second, careful viewers will notice I am playing a banjo (haha). I am just messing around in open D tuning.

Wow was looking into these pickups and this jag is my daily driver. Thanks for the upload, its still helping people out 10 years later!
Very good Job Sir! Beautiful playin'! It sounds amazing! All good wishes from Black Forest/Germany!
100 GBP just the bridge lol :D
Gotta love that gravy
Nice work. This is the video I needed cuz I’m deciding whether I should buy La Bellas for my VI. Do I want flats or rounds? Thanks for those great samples to help my decide.
Killer sound. I have the same pickup but getting a lot of ugly frequencies. Where exactly did you install the pickup?
It's been several years since I installed it, but I believe I placed it on the top side of the biscuit behind the saddle (I don't think I strayed from the instructions much other than mounting the jack in the F-hole). The routing of the cable that leads to the pickup itself is important as it is a bit microphonic and picks up vibrations of anything it touches. I might have wrapped it in thin foam in a few sections, if I recall correctly, to alleviate that.
Absolutely real deal presentation for the Fralin blues with incredible tones and stellar playing performance. Just what I was looking for. Thanks for sharing.
LOVELY <3
Still using 250k pots?
Que cuerda utilizas?
What a sound! I have to do it
Excellent !!!
exactly what i wanted when i searched "hey joe baritone solo guitar"
That was awesome
Man that clean sound ufffff love it
buenísimo
Nice one 👍
Very nice
I LOVE this kinda jam. You should really do a vid of improv like this that’s about 20 min! :))
Are there any other videos of you playing this bass. I watch this over and over. Just finished modding my second one. Keeping this one regret selling the other. Love your playing
Wow, that actually sounds really good.
EXCELENTE
EXCELENTE
Nice Demo....these sound really great!!! My next pickups.
what kind of pickup is that, a p90 ?
Nice musical version. I enjoyed hearing it. I have been looking for an isolated track of his actual solo. I McGuin play it live about 20 years ago. Seem to me like he just played the same thing he did on the original version. It has always seemed near chaos to me so I was sort of surprised he played as it was intention rather than jamming it out. A friend was playing drums in his pick up band at that show. My friend told me McGuin played just the same in rehearsal as well.
That was awesome! Sorry it took me 10yrs to find it! Skaal!
Nice man
NOT VERY IMPRESSIVE DITTY MY FRIEND/ BLIND JOHN, PHILLY
All these years later, and I still consider this one of my favourite slide tones ever. And I’d give my left but for a Trilogy Bridge 😂
Hi, I have a squier Bass VI coming in the mail in the coming days but I got my Labella flats first (.26-.95). What I want to ask is, do I need to resize the nut or is it a direct drop in? Thanks! And great tone and playing!
Tabs??
In my opinion these need flatwounds. They sound lame with rounds.
This is on my Playlist
Would this work with Nylon strings?
Yeaaaah!!! <3
When you say passive, do you mean you dont have the acousti phonic preamp installed? Just the ghost saddles?
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am just getting into slide blues.. you've got a lot going on here....
That made my day...and will continue to make it for years to come. Thank you for putting this out there. I love the Blind Willie Johnson version but this cuts me like a knife.
Hi Ed, what tuning are you in?
Very nice, perfectly sweet Jazzmaster tones.
this song works SO well for a 12 string... this video's what really inspired me to save up for my own 12 string. i'll definitely have to give this a shot when i get it!
Awesome sound
spine tingling! Love it! Not since i spent the night in Lake Charles LA have i had such vibes. MT
I got the Eko 200 with 2 pickups trying to figure out how to reduce the bass sound mine has the push white knobs
Great stuff.
What tuning are you in?
A thoughtful replacement. Never really saw the point of straight humbuckers in a Jaguar.Might as well be an SG. I like the Surf's , but also be aware of the (Alnico2) Phat Cats and Railhammer Cleancuts if you want the flat EQ and fatter lows most P90's lack.The switching on the Jag is very useful with the right pickups.
Ooh, niicely - done, - Ed! Very enjoyable! It was also good to hear a well-played new arrangement! You're playing a Fender Strat XII. I don't often see those! I have a Strat XII too (the next generation). You've inspired me. So, I'm about to fire mine back up!
