I've always loved this song so i'm using it as a starting point for an improvisation on this beautiful Collings I-30 Please Subscribe and visit my Merch Store.
Tim that guitar sounds so good in the treble pick-up. Love the way that big chromatic passage blossoms. This solo proves there are no wrong notes, we just lack confidence. Beautiful brother.
Hi Tim. You wouldn't be willing to teach 'Can I Get An Amen (for ZC)' by any chance? I would likely need to get back into playing often and advance a fair bit before trying, but I've wanted to learn that since you released the vid haha.
There is something about thin-line hollow body f-hole guitars that creates a sound I love, especially with P-90 or mini-humbucking pickups. I'd like to hear that guitar played clean on the neck pickup..? Collings said the middle layer of a three-layer top is where the tone comes from, so with Gibson that would be poplar, which is sandwiched between maple ply, but maybe it's a carved top on that model? Epiphone uses a thicker 5-layer top, which isn't as responsive - I have a 2008 Gretch Korean 5120 "electromatic" model, which was made with the thinner three-ply top usually used on more expensive models. It's very responsive and loud acoustically, which translates into a more pleasing musical experience amplified. I'm glad Collings got into making electric guitars, because he has made some beautiful versions of the classic old models, arguably improving their designs.
I cannot remember swearing so much while watching a video in a really long time!! The playing is always superb, and that Tone was freaking amazing!! ❤️❤️ I’m guessing you were on the bridge pick up with slight overdrive. But that is just a guess. Well done Tim!!
Hey Tim. Love the playing as always. I’ve been meaning to ask for some guidance with harp harmonics for a while. Any plans to cover this topic in the future? Thanks!
So enjoyed your playing on this tune and your sound/tone. So surprised when I looked and you were on the neck pickup. Does the Collings use Lollars? I have been looking at a similar Heritage model. Hard to find a good ES-330 I can afford.
I knew that guitar would sound great in your hands Tim.
What an incredibly tasty solo.
Tim you always put a smile on my face.
What a wild tone, love it! Music is spectacular too. I'm an instant fan within first 5 seconds of playing.

That’s right, there are no wrong notes. Go with the flow?? Bird said the same thing.
Yup, don’t even think about it
Much appreciated pure unpretentious soulful music. Thanks for the inspiration.
Collings guitars are just incredible! Of course in your hands doesn't hurt 😊
Steve from ATX home of Collings guitars 😊
Very cool Tim! 👍🎸🎶💯
Smooth as butter, love the snappy treble pick up sound, bravo Tim! 👏
Sweet and lyrical lines. Always a joy to listen to. Thanks. Shally
Really awesome tune.
very nice bro!

A performance and transcription of that tune is included in my TrueFire course Solo Jazz Pathways Chordal Improv
Well, that was very nice
Great playing 👍🏻
Thank you Tim.. Real nice guitar work to listen to 'round midnight. Beautiful guitar with awesome tone! Keep 'em comin..

All that goes out the window when pickups come into play.
so beautiful
That's great Tim
Tasty tasty
This song looks quite similar to Don't think twice it's alright. Interesting chord changes indeed!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Very nice tone. It’s not just/mostly the guitar and pickup.
Beautiful! Ethos doing the overdrive?
bearfoot Honey Bee, although I also really love the Ethos
Love the different timbre you get going between the pick and thumb, so expressive. How do you like the neck profile on the collings?
sounding great here. You need to have that axe, but you'll have to play a lot of brunch gigs to pay for it.

I made a master class Video on Harmonics for JazzGuitarSociety.com about 10 years ago that might be helpful
Such soulful and expressive playing, how did you get that organic and smooth overdriven tone?
I wanted to ask the same question. Great tone
Bearfoot honey bee. Mentioned further down the comments

These are Lollars I used the Bridge pickup all the way thru the tune
Killer improv, so well paced. I confess my ignorance, however: is this a standard or a more recent tune?
It’s a tune written by Robert Zimmerman.
Oh, as in Bob Zimmerman? Don't Think Twice?
Princeton?
Not today, the Princeton is unwell. I used a Quilter 101 reverb on this one.
is this the Quilter?
Yes 101 rev.
