The Rain Song on Martin D12X1AE before and after changing 4 year old strings

In this video, I’m using a 12-string Martin D12X1AE with 4-year-old strings to play Led Zeppelin’s “The Rain Song”, which I learned yesterday for this video, then I put on new strings and tried it again. You be the judge.

Thank you for watching!

Jimmy Page Shows Jack White and Edge How He Wrote Kashmir


 
Jimmy Page plays the iconic riff from “Kashmir” and explains to Jack White and U2’s Edge how he came up with the song.

It was just as easy as playing around with a non-standard guitar tuning, and being an amazing musician and guitarist…simple recipe. Now, try it at home. Best of luck!

Joe Bonamassa’s Gibson Les Paul tone tips guitar lesson


Joe Bonamassa, master blues-guitarist shows just how versatile a Gibson Les Paul can be, by running straight into the amp, using no pedals. By using nothing more than different pickup selections and tone/volume pot adjustments, he gets a surprisingly wide variation in sounds, from clean to dirty, and much in-between.

Hope you enjoy it!
