Tip #1: play with as much joy as Tim. Everything after that will fall right into placeâŠ.đ
I always pray with joy...every breath, is a gift.
Shhh! You need to delete this post!
Absolutely ⊠this is the 100% truth! đ€â€ïžđž
Your playing sounds so perfect, smooth sound and velvety touch, wonderful note articulation. I like the Eastman guitar. Thanks for the tips video.
Thank you too! Appreciate the comment
I own a handful of Eastman instruments. They kick a lot of butt!
The older I got, I stopped overplaying and started orchestrating. Thanks for the tips, Tim.
That's great! I guess the same thing happens to me
Tim, your passion shines through your playing. Thank you for all of the work you have done and the videos you share.
My pleasure!
@@timpierceguitarHi Tim, I noticed youâre playing an Eastman Romeo which I have been eyeballing a few weeks. Howâs your experience with it after a year? I yet have to find negative comment, they seem to be amazing quality for the dollar đ
Tim, watching your channel is an absolute joy! Not only are you amazing to listen to, but you have great insights, fascinating stories, and so much music to talk about. But what sets you apart is the look of absolute joy on your face when you play! It's amazing to see.
I don't play, but I enjoyed the hell out of hearing and watching you play.
Eastman make great guitars .
Mind blown by shoving pick in the gap on the pickup housing.
Changed my world Tim! How could I have missed this all these years!
Watched this video, bought this guitar. Can't help it. GAS:) But Tim made it an easy and a very good choice. Lovin' this guitar! Nice demo, Tim!
WOW, Tim your ability to teach , the different techniques for playing the instrument and still impact me with feeling while you're teaching , is a wonder gift ,! It makes me want to just listen to you play and talk about what you are playing . Thank you mister Pierce !
Both of my kids now play Eastman acoustics. They are making some excellent guitars and great prices.
my fav player on yt this guy is the real deal.
I've watched so many videos by Tim but thus may be his beautiful playing yet. So tasteful and smooth
I feel like I'm starting to understand. The way you talked me through this one has me beaming! Thank you so much for this style of teaching.
The best info Iâve gotten in years is resting my pick in the humbucker edge!! Many thanks Tim.
You're lessons are always the best! Thanks for you and your love of music!
Every time I watch I am reminded to lighten my touch. Such a difference.
Great tip for conveniently getting the pick out of your hand but keeping it readily accessible. I learn something new every time I watch one of your videos. Thanks.
My God you're a gift. I love your contribution to all the songs I loved listening to when I was younger and now the training you offer. A true master
Beautiful Guitar, even more beautiful playing ... effortless ! I love watching you seamlessly go thru these changes.Thanks
What a great video. I have to say those hammer ons were more reminiscent of Mayfield or Womack than Cropper but I love all three and have been influenced by them since I was a kid.
Great lesson Tim!!! I love how peaceful the track is and your playing is so tasteful as always đ„
I learn and enjoy your videos. I watch so I can hear the joy brought to sound. Fantastic teaching. Once my Grandson has advanced enough I plan on buying him a membership to your master class.
We are really living in the best time for music. Thank you so much for this!
I have an Eastman T484 (Like an ES339) and really love it - VERY well made, sounds & plays like a dream. One day the wind caught it during a break at an outdoor gig, and it flew 12 feet and landed on concrete - with no damage!
Thatâs amazing - had to be a look of sheer horror during the process! I bought a Romeo due to a good price but I was really wanting the 484, I wonder if itâs worth having both or are they close enough to each other to skip over it. đ€
I donât know why I never thought to wedge the pick in the pickup ring! I primarily use finger style but need the pick every now and then and have never been good at palming the pick.
Thanks, man!
I have the Eastman version of a Casino and absolutely adore it. They make fantastic guitars, crazy value.
Fantastic Eastman. Pickups are spot on...as are the tips and execution of course!
I live in China and believe or not, not too many players here are using Eastman. I play a Romeo and every gig a few players ask what kind of guitar Iâm using. Thereâs a few models to be had used at just over 1,000$ - not cheap, but what you get is beyond great. The LA version is currently up against the Juliet with the P90âs - such a great time to be a guitar player âđŒ!
I got an Eastman 386T (like a 335 ) ,it's a lefty ,and I LOVE it! The neck feels "just right " and it has Kent Armstrong PUPs .Really sweet ! I'm a lucky guy !
Tim has become of of my favorite guitarists. Joining the likes of Via, Satch, Prince, Melvoin, Knopfler and EVH. Thank you Tim!
Always inspired, impressed, and so many great tips that you share. Thank you.
Thanks for the wonderful lesson! I love how you parse topics into understandable and relatable playing tips. So good. Thanks again.
That tip putting the plectrum in the humbucker route is getting tried next playing session. What a great idea. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom and musicality, it truly is inspiring.
Also on tele or strats if you slightly back off the pick guard screws on one side, a pick can be securely placed with the tip under the plastic.
I really liked that style of lesson. Much more like a hang than a lesson.
Always entertaining, never boring. Much respect Tim...
Loved this video Tim! Your joy is infectious đđ€
So tasty! I look forward to finding this in the masterclass. Thank you as ever for sharing your inspiring tips!
Always love your playing! Also happen to love Eastman guitars. That Romeo is drop dead gorgeous!
Nice sounding guitar! Of course, Tim could make any guitar sound great. Will look for the expanded in the Masterclass. Thanks Tim!
Tim is my favorite on CZcams. I was thinking about buying this particular Easterman model. Iâm sold! Thanks Tim for demoing it.
''I ignore time.'' Such a good definition of a master improviser.
So many tasty notes and licks within a couple of minutes. Awesome.
Beautiful singing tone. Tasty playing. All your videos are so enjoyable. Thanks!
You're playing takes my breath away! Subscribed!
Lovely playing and solid solid tips. Thank you! Very nice guitar too. Very clever tremelo bar design that you can drop in an a stop tailpiece guitar. I'm surprised no one thought of it before!
Great playing and explaining Tim!!
Tim is a world class musician with a kind and humble heart.
Eastman makes great guitars. I bought a T59/v after playing well over a dozen 335s/339s at my local Guitar Centers and it is superior in every way.
Eastman does make great guitars but I wound up going the other way. The T59 just didn't sound like a 335. I sold mine and got a Gibson Memphis 335 from 2018. I am very happy with it.
So much class and taste
Your Tone Tips are the Best Tim!! YOu Rock
That is one beautiful tune you played and with such skill....
I didn't know about the Göldo stuff. Thanks, Tim! Great vid as always!
Reminds me a lot of Keith Scottâs playing on Bryan Adamâs Native Son! Brilliant playing Tim, such an inspiration!
such a beautiful guitar - and a wonderful master-player
Beautiful guitar, beautiful playing.
Great playing. Phrasing is everything and your variations are coupled with great phrasing. Lovely guitar. I have an eastman acoustic. Amazing guitar. Affordable and all solid handmade.
Wonderful playing as usual maestro.
Thank you kindly!
Great vid, Tim. Love my two Eastman... real deals.
Same here!
Yet another reason why subscribing to this channel is a must for every guitar player.
love this
Oh my god, I never thought to put my pick in the bezel, clever!
Love your playing, Tim. Other than the arm, that trem looks just like a Duesenberg Les Trem II. I just put one on my Eastman T484.
Tim explanations are so easy to follow, his talent is massive and of course, far far away ahead from mine. Gorgeous Eastman Romeo LA guitar that sounds awesome in Timâs hands âïžđ
Tim, you could make a Sears Silvertone Guitar with the strings a half an inch above the fingerboard sound great, Cousin Figel
He talks a lot about hardware but that has nothing to do with how good this guy is. His talent and attitude is what brings the magic to this channel. I think Tim could very well be the Bob Ross of guitar CZcamsrs, so chill with killer spirit. A lot of his career success most likely has to do with attitude and spirit as much as it has to with his talent. Here is what appears to be the definition of success for musical artist//: Someone who has earned a relevant career the hard way and now is just sharing the joy with the world.
Breaking free from time is my favorite âloosenerâ brings soul into it. Bro, I love your expression. So clear and flexible. 1 â€ïž
I appreciate that!
He says that - but it never sounds like heâs searching for pocket, me⊠Not so đ
Amazing lesson Tim,
Hey thank you so much I appreciate it
Nice tasteful stuff. That Guitar is a beaut. I've been adding my Trem pedal for some of my runs. Perhaps Pops staples has influenced me. Take care
Loving the Eastman Romeo LA
I'd deeply appreciate a video incorporating parts of your brilliant and elegant contribution on Kenny Loggins' "Blue on Blue". What a piece! Simplistic greatness...
Great lesson Tim. I love Eastman guitars. I almost bought a Romeo a couple years ago when I was looking for a Gibson 335 style guitar. I ended up buying an Eastman T184MX. It's a great guitar, but I should have bought the Romeo.
such a phenomenal player
I really appreciate it
Off topic...
Tim i just discovered your work with Cock Robin...amazing!
Thank you for supporting one of my favs in my childhood đand i ask Rick to do a "what makes this song great" on his channel đ
Greetings from Germany and much love and light đâ€đđđđœ
Very nice Tim đđ
Your playing sounds like Joe Walsh recording a new Eagles songâŠbeautiful.
And one beautiful guitar as well much like a TV but with a Guild style!
That's beautiful. Bill Nelson plays Eastmans I think, and that tone is very like him.
Tim and his peers are not just American culture, these guys are American greatness.
I never hear a clam from you! Thanks, Tim
Boy thanks Tim just yesterday is the first time in a year that I sounded decent to myself but I didn't have anything hooked up or wasn't planned anyone unfortunately nobody hears me like that much and knows what I can do so I'm just going to keep working on that and getting back to that thank you so much for your tips it's so true for me anyway I never felt so good in a long time as I did yesterday when I was playing I just might say that I was thinking about you and maybe we'll get together someday and Jim I love that. Bless your heart Tim.
Change UP my playing! It's exactly what I need! how did you know Tim? đ đ
Thank you for all that you bring to us!đ
Sounds great.đš
Sweet!
Please do a "heaven on their minds" lick demo
Excellent
Man that guitar sounds amazing. Tim is obviously a superb player but wow!
the playing is so effortless
Nice guitar,,,,thanks Tim đ
Thank you too!
A yearâs worth of practice material in one video!
I tried to get this guitar but it was stuck in a shipping container somewhere.
Gave up after six months or so of not knowing.
Sounds great Tim
Tim, your generosity of spirit is amazing! Your skills also seem unattainable to the guy that learned to play folk guitar and has been focused on all six strings sounding at the same time. Learning from you and others like Rick Beato could make me a much better player, I just have to do the work now⊠get a space set up and commit to investing time to improve!
Wow, thanks!
I'm now 60...playing off/on since 9....20 year hiatus to raise kids. Tip: Spider drills....jazz chords...both have really moved me beyond my highest expectations. Challenge yourself and play the same 'hard parts' hundreds of times before moving to the next part of the song. Again...really improved my skills and muscle memory via rote repetition.
I was this old when I learned the pick in the pickup trick!
I can dig it Flame đ„ On
Liked your finger freedom playing. The one bug a boo i have with dual PU guitars is the narrow 2 1/16" bridge string spacing.
Tim, Is this wider, like a tele?
So I looked up the Juliet's specs and they dont have that spec.
But . . . they have a wide nut-width! The 1.72" Gibson acoustic nut-width that I find so great. Especially with their round 12" radius most acoustics don't have. This guitar could be that smooth player with a tad more room for adult chords?
I doesn't hurt to have top shelf studio playing skills. You sir are a FEENOMINAL player. Pun intended.
Holy shit. Tim how aren't you a pop star
I have PhatCats, love them
what a cool duuuud
Great sound! Are you using the stock strings D'Addario .011-.049?
Haven't played any Eastman electrics, but I'm a BIG fan of their acoustics. Their lower priced offerings play like more expensive guitars, IMO, and their Grand Auditorium size design is just about perfect for me. Not too bulky like a Dreadnought, nice and comfortable on the lap, but still with enough volume on the voice. The two I have both have some nice depth to their tone, with pretty overtones on the Sitka and Ovangkol one. They're a good guitar company. They make nice stuff, at least based on what I've played so far.
Tim you could play a plastic ukulele and it would sound awesome.
