    Lindsay Ell hung with Premier Guitar’s John Bohlinger before her show at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena where she was opening for Sugarland. Ell, a full-on guitar geek, could not wait to spill the details on her rig.
    Lindsay Ell personally painted a guitar for each song on her 2017 album, The Project. Several of these guitars join her on tour and become a big part of her show. Betty Van Halen #1 is a Fender American Standard Strat that she uses each night on “Waiting On You,” Ell’s first single off The Project. All her guitars are strung with D’Addario EXL140 (.010-.052) or D’Addario NYXL (.010-.052). She plays with D’Addario Heavy (1.0 mm) picks.
    Lindsay Ell received this relic’d Strat as a gift from Brad Paisley after spending some time out on the road opening for him. Paisley asked her what her dream guitar would be and worked to create a replica of a ’57 “Mary Kay” Strat. Paisley contacted Fender to get all the period-correct parts and then assembled and relic’d the guitar himself. She named it “Herbert” since its color reminded her of sherbet.

    I love Lindsay and her painted guitars. She's really cool and a bona fide guitar nerd. I've painted guitars (Strats) before for myself and for an auction. The auction was to benefit the Blues Foundation Hall of Fame museum in Memphis, which is now complete to visit and awesome! And for myself I did two Squier based replicas of George Harrison's Rocky Strat. Painting for me is fun and i'm stoked to another original thing when the funds allow it. I used acrylics like Lindsay did. They def leave a sticky texture though and be careful to get non yellowing lacquer. But the pro way to do it is use a spray gun for the lacquer and wet sand many coats and then polish and buff. Doesn't look so rough that way.

  • @RJRonquillo
    @RJRonquillo Před 5 lety +27

    I might have to get on that 2 tuner game. A long time ago, I saw Luther Dickinson with Boss and Peterson tuners on his board and asked him why, he said he's just a stickler for making sure it's REALLY in tune.

    • @michaelangeloh.5383
      @michaelangeloh.5383 Před 5 lety +1

      Why?... You can do it with any one good tuner, but you just have to know how to do it right. - A regular guitar's tuning varies al the time anyway (that's why companies like EverTune come up with the products they come up with). I mean, as soon as you turn one string, another will slightly change even on a fixed bridge, and once you start playing strings go out of tune anyway. - In tune is in tune, it's not exactly rocket-science-precision, and you'll spend more time on tuning it than it takes time to play it out of tune again. - If you want to be more precise; Nothing beats intonation at the saddles and having nothing (such as the nut) getting them caught. - Well, nothing beats an EverTune-bridge in compbination with a true temperament fret-system probably, but that's not the norm. - But anyway, multiple or more accurate tuners aren't going to guarantee that you're more in tune. - It's how you do it, especially using your ear.

    • @TheSammyreynolds
      @TheSammyreynolds Před 5 lety

      There's a reason why Evertune bridges haven't caught on yet. They take so much wood out of the guitar. They need to update their design.

    • @michaelangeloh.5383
      @michaelangeloh.5383 Před 5 lety

      Maybe, but I don't think that's much of a reason to not equip a guitar with an EverTune. - It's practically the same principle as routing for a tremolo-system, and I've never heard anyone complain about how thát sounds. - I think EverTune hasn't caught on yet because it's "strange" and people likely think it's "gimmick-y". Besides the fact that it's expensive and not just a drop-in replacement. - But I see more and more guitar-companies just going with EverTube-bridges by default.
      But in any case, the point was that it's the thing to use if you just want to have your guitar in tune. :) - As opposed to... using two tuners?... Still dont know what that's about... Seems more like a ritual... Standing in the middle of a circle of tuners... During full moon...

    I love the last two guitars shown. The purple one is really "feminine" because of its features, being slimmed down and all, though that would great for me as a smaller dude. And I like how straightforward it is. And I love the dripped paint on the last one.

(Source: JHS Klon history). It’s also funny to hear her quote the Centaur price at $1800 back then now that they’re listed from $5k - $9k

Then inexperienced foolishly painted it Cherry red it was curing drying but still wet and had to go play it was all I had at the time ! So plugged in and the paint was ha ha sagging funnily but we played never again now I just watch you pros and your videos.I did get a Ibanez Iceman given me to play through a Peavet Renown .enough said you receive this viewer .good day M.S.T. mike m

There's this amazingly beautiful young woman who can really play the guitar, who loves AC30's, who paints her guitars the way I would, who's been given one of the most gorgeous looking guitars ever made, by Brad Paisley no less (!!!), who has the coolest looking amp in one of the coolest colours I can think of, who knows her shit, who has a great tone and a great taste of pedals, who's most probably into Eddie van Halen and (if I saw what I think I saw) into Nirvana as well, and who is obviously a very intelligent and bright person.
    I think I'm in love!
