Abbey Road Guitarist

[Bahco]

I have come across this guy on You Tube who has learnt all the guitar parts to Abbey Rd to a tee.

What a knock out.

Enjoy

It's all pretty basic stuff. The kudos should go to the guy that wrote it. Any competent guitar player can play it. He seems more interested in showing off his guitar collection. Can he do anything original?

Forgot to say it was The Beatles who wrote these parts.

Those guitars are all classics especially the Les Paul and Strat.

Do you know what the first (white) guitar is?

 

[joe-90]

The white one is the strat. The other one is a slim line telecaster, the bluish one is a Gretch and the yellow one is a Gibson SG. The Les Paul is a custom as it has 3 pick-ups.

 

[Bahco]

The white one is the strat. .

Thought the brown one (Sun King) was the strat.

 

[megawatt]

Joe is correct, the first guitar (white) is the strat.

 

[joe-90]

Been looking at some of this guys other stuff - he's very good. He's Japanese btw.

That strat is one of the 70's big headstock (Jimmi type).

The bluish one is a Gretch .

Which blue one ?

Which blue one ?

Sorry there isn't one. I thought that the les paul with the bigsby tremolo was a Gretch country gentleman. He's got a few other guitars mind.

What guitars have you got Joe?

I have the original 1960s (Ringo) Ludwig Oyster Pearl kit and also a Hofner copy bass.

 

[joe-90]

An American maple neck strat.

A sunburst maple neck American Telecaster.

A John Smith Graduate 60 with Seymour duncans, (Les Paul )

A jap Strat 61 reissue

And a few others kicking around.

Getting rid of a few soon.

Getting rid of a few soon.

You cannot be serious?

I have a white custom telecaster and a sunburst Epiphone Sheraton and I would get rid of Mrs Megawatt before parting with either of them

I'm an odd guy. I play an average of 5 hours per day - but rarely change guitars. I've played the Telecaster twice in the past 10 years. I've got an Epiphione acoustic (top of the range made in Japan) that I haven't played in over 20 years. All I ever seem to play at the moment is the black strat, maple neck which I use for everything. I use it for acoustic (hybrid picking) and even classical. I've got an old Martin Sigma acoustic that I play in the garden. I just hate changing guitars once I've got used to one.

Ahah, the self-same philosophy that you apply to motorway lanes

 

[Bahco]

I must admit I am a middle lane hogger.

Back on topic This GUY is good and has a lovely sounding IBANEZ bass.

Not heard of these basses, are they low budget or mid range?
