- We took the chance of having this guitar for a couple of days to test it and this was one of the things we did with it. Great guitar. Thanks to Mr. Phil for his excellent drumming.

How do you keep the groove so tight?
NICE question - the only one I remember recently in thousands of comments; here's the deal: one has TO CONSTANTLY, every instant, every moment, feel the rhythm within themselves; dance to it, MOVE your body (literally, dance, "bop" to the rhythm). The 'faces' however disturbing to some (aware of this) ARE a necessity for the playing guitarist; they simply show the inner timing, inner sound manifesting itself on the outside, as well playing it on the instrument. It's a whole, completely surrounding feeling that has to encompass the whole body and mind. It IS a big effort, but it is necessary in order to play in a way that will give you - instantly and constantly - the true satisfaction that I KNOW you have been looking for. That satisfaction in fact can (in my humble opinion) ONLY be found in timing, more than ANYTHING other technique. A musician's best secret and most precious skill is nothing else but their sense (and skill - to be developed) of timing. Merry Christmas, Fil!
@@SoloDallas your timing is legit. You have taken something which is so difficult and made it look easy
@@SoloDallas A great answer to a great question! Thanks! 🤘
Practice
few notes, no effects, + feeling is the best timing
Everyone always has fun playing AC/DC. Best guitar music in the world 👍
I love how "Malcolm" is putting so much heart & soul into it - being simple & rock steady for 5 minutes straight takes a lot more effort than you'd think!
Rest In Peace Malcom you are loved and missed!
AC/DC FOREVER!!!
Quite possibly my favorite solo from Angus. Very economical whilst being a hell of a groove.
Well played by both of you. Thanks for the upload.
Powerage (my favorite album) really showed how good the band had become as the playing and Bon's lyrics were superb. It showed they were ready for the next level. Unfortunately Bon was not there to enjoy it.;(
I’ve noticed every single cover of AC/DC on CZcams never sounds like what they do live or on the records. I swear it’s a deep secret when it comes to tones with Malcolm and Angus. RIP Malcolm Young! Greatest rhythm guitarist of all time
Scotty one of the reasons why 'Classic AC/DC' was so good (still is in fact, because it's a *classic*) was their attention to perfection: their recording style and technique added to their talent is still unmatched. NO cover band has the talent nor knowledge (and commitment!) to get anywhere close, now or in the future. The amount of time and (once again) knowledge relative to such process is just unreplicable today, with few to no exceptions.
Maybe they could nail that sound if they focused more on the playing and forget about trying to act like Angus. The rythym player was working his ass off trying to move his mouth like Angus does when he’s playing. I don’t know why people think they have to act like Angus when playing his music. That’s just the way Angus reacts while playing. It’s not required to play AC DC songs😎
@@gwhiz3708 Are you playing Guitar? I do for about 30 years. And nearly every good Guitarist i've played with did some stupid looking moves and things with his eyes and his mouth. Including me. I didn't know that until i saw myself on video and was really suprised and a little bit scared 😅 It is like you re on a trip when you re grooving and moving right. This is not an Angus thing. And for the 2 guys in the video: perfect performance! Really really nice! ACDC brought me to music when i was a child. It is simple an clean. Everybody can learn the notes. But only a few hit the groove right, hit the tone right....sorry for the poor grammar, german english.....rock on
@@WiesnheimerBuckelfreund I looked up other videos of the lead guitarist and he only “reacted” that way on ac dc songs so that proves it’s a put on. I couldn’t find any other video’s of the rhythm player but I bet the same is true. I’m not trying to be down on those guys so I done my research first to prove my point. I’ve done this with other guitarist also and found the same to be true. Rock on, Stephanie 🤟
@@gwhiz3708 Ok 🙂 Steffen...not Stephanie 😅😅
The best cover ever of this best ACDC Song ever. Simply totally cool!
I totally agree! I wish there was a download link!!! I can't stop grooving to it. One of the best AC/DC songs ever!!!!
This is how you're suppose to play ACDC. Who could just stand there and play. Gotta make the faces and dance around.
Listen to Dangerous Young!
I am a cranky old Aussie dude who grew up with Bon Scott living around the corner. AC/DC were explosive before they became world famous and they only just played in local pubs. This is incredible and these guys are perfect. Trust me for an old Aussie to say this it means something. I still listen to them and I am covered in tattoos and ride a Harley and I am the grandfather you always feared. Rock on dude!
This is the closest Malcolm tone I've heard on CZcams
Thanks, really appreciate the comment. We'll probably go with an early to mid 70s Super Bass for the next recording as it's slightly cleaner, and perhaps think about a different speaker choice. Again, that's to add to the clarity/tightness of his sound. The SD50 is a very versatile amp though... clean to dirty, it's all there.
edit: I can't spell...
Super bass is the way to go, allthough for the Power Age album a 2203 sounds perfect! It takes a lot of dialing in to make a 2203 really good for Malcolm tones but it kan be done :-D Great playing!
@@rev2203 totally totally played perfect of you both. one of the best acdc songs ever covered in the best way ever heard. simply great, i watch it over and over again....rock on!
rev2203 well done daddy
The tone is there, what I miss is the attack. But hey... That's Malcolms magic ;)
RIP MR MALCOLM YOUNG :,(
This is so good: the sound, the groove, the energy and the ac/dc- enthusiasm- pure joy!!!
NAILED it! Bravo, guys!
you should perform more covers in duo, it's really cool !
both of you are completely crazy, excellent !!
Dr. Fil is a Genius... can't wipe the smile off my face.
How rhythm and lead should be played.. this is perfection.. now I can belt my lungs out on the best Karaoke of Gone Shootin' ever!
I agree! As much as I love the Stones, I’ve never been a fan of Keef’s lame-o “weaving” approach. Give me this distinct lead/rhythm arrangement any day, and leave the weaving for occasional use only.
Awesome. The playing, the groove, the tone and the headbanging! Love it all!
That was just plain cool as hell. Both of you guys were really in the groove and excellent playing!!!!
Thank you so much!
You continue to impress. Tone and feel is spot on 👍
who put thumbs down ??? Really sad.......... Great job boys.
Some long time haters. It's always the same people who subscribed just to thumb me down - all good! And thanks so much for your appreciation - love, Fil
Justin Bieber fans maybe ?...
Probably Angus' most economic solo (in terms of how much he is able to get out of using/reusing the same notes). My favorite solo on Powerage
Very well played here. Nice playing all around.
Killer tone
Oooh my god really good song with this guitars and two mad guys !! 😂😂💪💪
Fall out boy
I absolutely love the energy here. Its one thing to play the song well but its another to FEEL the music when your playing. Very well done performance.
Fil, I love your enthusiasm and devotion to AC/DC. Your quest to understand their tone is truly wonderful. I am really happy for you when you uncovered the secret of the Schaeffer (spelling?) and then had the ultimate compliment of giving Ang one of your replicas. Congratulations! I will always be eternally jealous of your collections of SGs, Firebirds and Marshalls!!! Great version of Gone Shootin’. You capture the “roll” so well that Mal always said was the key ingredient to their sound. That replica “Beast” is amazing! Well done, boys!!!
I'm so glad you are still playing and uploading covers Phil! Been a big fan of yours ever since 2008 :D
This is amazing! Well done!!
Everything was just right, the tone, the staccato rhythms, all of it. 👍❤️
It’s great to see you back and in good shape Phil and friend👍
So you finally put that track to a good use! Glad to hear my bass is there too! Great vid, Fil. Cheers!
matirocker will be in touch
Mati! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! Couldn't have come out like this without you playing with MrPhilRudd
That guy sure had that Phil sound nailed, didn't he? Dang!
awkward...
Hands down not only is this the best ACDC song but it's the most quintessential song that demonstrates how rock n roll is the blues.
what a great tone WOW!!!
When the Gretsch takes up the riff... pure rock n roll? Sounds absolutely sick 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Vous avez tout compris de la musique de ce groupe extraordinaire, vous avez donnez la meilleure version de cette chanson, merci, vous avez du talent. Continuez.
Only the Young brothers could've done better than that! Really the perfect tribute to the genius of Malcom! The tone is really THAT tone! The feel and crescendo is really THAT! chapeau!
This is pure no bullshit rock n roll...great groove and just the right amount of fun...nicely done lads.
This never gets old 👍😆
OH. MY. GAWD!!! I met Angus and Malcolm, Bon, Phil & Cliff in 1979. Been my favorite band ever since. YOU BOYS NAILED THIS SONG!!!! My second fave song of AC/DC ever (Highway to Hell #1). Thank you!!!
Awsome as always mate...Always loved Mal's chords on this track
great to see ya both find that rhythm and stick into it hard ...fun
That was FANTASTIC!!! I LOVE IT. Gone Shooting. One of the best AC/DC songs ever.
Excellent! You have the formula as well as the execution.............
Most realistic and true tone of AC/DC I've seen and heard.
The man himself would have been pleased with this. Excellent playing!
Everything about this cover is great, and the amount of fun you're both having makes it even better.
So very damn good !! Perfect !
Loving also the "Malcolm touch"! Perfect accuracy
Thanks, really appreciate the comment!
You're welcome!
Little late commenting, but do you happen to remember what your settings are for Mal's sound on this? I'm so close with my own Gretsch, but I feel like I'm missing out on some sort of 'secret sauce' so-to-speak with the tone.
Jimmy: We are using the latest TSR here with the boost off, using only the optical limiter for a touch of compression. This was a bit of a work-around because we didn't have a 1992 Marshall Super Bass at the time of recording (it's here now) . I'm not sure where the settings ended up: naturally, it changes throughout the process. Where are you so far? Which amp are you using? Presence on these old (or old-style) amplifiers is a major part of dialling in the sound, and this sound especially - the amp 'volume' knob isn't everything. Of course we should mention there is numerous UAD plug-ins on top of this sound, but nothing earth-shattering or really that "magic". To my ears now, it has a bit too much 'grit' in the tone, but that's 50 watts for you. Not bad, though! We'll fix it. Cheers
rev2203 Thank you for the reply! I am actually using a JCM 900 that a friend sold to me. It’s surprisingly good for Malcom’s tone, albeit sometimes I find myself fiddling with every knob to try to get closer and sometimes even using an EQ which personally I’m not a fan of. Like you said, it’s an everyday hunt for the proper tone! Again, thanks for taking the time to reply to me. I’m definitely always on the lookout for a superbass as well, it’d be a dream to finally have one in my possession.
Amazing!! Great stuff guys!!. Powerage is my favorite album from AC/DC. I've listening to it for 35 years and I love it every single time!!
I never knew Malcolm ventured that far up the neck.. the 'dusty' end as he called it... phenomenal job boys. Superb.
Holy moly this is goooood
YES! I LOVE IT! Love watching people rock out and having a good time, keep it up guys! Freaking awesome!
That's awesome guys!! One of my favorite AC/DC tunes. Malcum will never be dead as long as we remember these songs and play them loud and proud!!!
Y'all are having a blast. That's the most fun thing to watch. \m/
Phenomenal! Absolutely phenomenal!
i absolutely love it .. can't stop playing it
Oooooooo! The rest of my life will be an anticlimax ✌️
Wow...nicely done fellas
AC⚡DC🎸 RIP Malcolm🎸
Insane. One of best groovy songs of acdc. And You rock it.
These guys are badass . Having fun and lovin’ it .
What joy watching you both together!, thank you
Impressed every time. Awesome
A groove so deep I fell in.....awesome!
This is one of the best examples out there of how truly great rhythm players use dynamics in their playing to add to the overall song. Listen How Malcolm loosens up during the second half of the solo.
Good to see someone else having as much fun as you Fil. Sounds great.
Constant head bob ... killing it gentleman!
This jam especially fitting today....RIP MALCOM YOUNG!😢
THE BEST COVER version ive ever heard of Gone Shootin......
you nailed Malcolms sound I this .....awesome great stuff -
From Australia
\m/
talk about feeling the groove.
FANTASTIC. The boys would be proud. +++++
Thank you so much guys ! I could easily listen to the art/sound of AC/DC you both make for HOURS !!! Malcolm !!!!!!!
Really great tribute, love the gretch.
You two have sure done this song justice. Perfectly played and the sound is right on the money
I like how you guys are feeling the music😁👍
Captured everything perfectly - the parts, the tone and the spirit! ⚡️
Great job guys! Mal would be proud!
It’s amazing to me how huge those guitars always looked on Angus and Malcom but on others they are normal size.
Angus uses SG-XXL
One of my all time favorite acdc songs! I could sit in that Groove for days!! Excellent work on all fronts!
Love the energy, boys
Every time i hear this i'm happy
Freaking awesome bro !!!
Lead and all....top notch
Great job Fil and friend!!
I know im 4yrs late but you guys killed it!!! So great seeing young fellas enjoying and jammin some old school acdc!!! 🤟🏽
Hey you two...absolutely excellent! Good for you for sharing your skill gents...Thank you!
Solo Dallas ist ein Tier an der Gitarre!!!!!!Super gespielt!!!
How delightful!
Oh yeah that's spot on, I remember working things out maybe 30 yrs ago digging the solo and groove, beauty mate
Fabulous job lads. Bang on.
Spot on fellas! Really enjoyed this. Was waiting for Bon's voice to kick in!!
Bravo, gentlemen. Well done!
So tight and awesome!
That one really swings, fellas! Great job!
Nice work! Love the enthusiasm
This is a spectacular job.
You guys are having a good time. Love it. Sounds Fantastic.
Had to listen again....Totally Awesome
Good job guys, your enthusiasm and ultra geekdom is highly admirable, no apologies, perfect!
Malcolm would have been proud.... great work, great sound, great everything....
Awesome...keeping the Rock n Roll dream alive 👍
Nailed it, boys. Bravo! This song is not as easy as it looks/sounds. Rock On ! Now if we could just get Bon in there...
EVERY SINGLE AC/DC song is extremely hard to play - playing the WAY AC/DC play it. Contrary to EVERY SINGLE voice who has affirmed "AC/DC songs are easy to play", AC/DC songs are almost impossible to play making them sound the way AC/DC made them sound. Shocking as it may be - that's the reality.
As always, great job!!!
Wow well done, gents! Cant say enough about how perfect that was.
The Young brothers were such great song writers. Awesome cover off an awesome album. LTBR/Powerage/HTH AC/DC is untouchable. Always loved the break at 4:17. Classic AC/DC.
Fantastic job gentlemen!
I enjoyed this immensely, so thanks guys! Brilliant rendition.
Most excellent gentleman, most excellent. Subscribed.
