Bohemian Rhapsody Solo
Whilst waiting for my Kramer to arrive I decided to record and upload a cover of one of my favourite all time solo's! Not 100% as I like to add my own touch and feel and a bit outta sync thanks to YouTube. Tell me what you think

Re: Bohemian Rhapsody Solo
Cheers! The tone was from Pod Farm and came out sounding better than I thought

Re: Bohemian Rhapsody Solo
Very nice playing....I also took a stab at it with my Eric Johnson Signature Strat and TSL 100:
Bohemian Rhapsody (excerpt) Marshall TSL 100 & Vintage Modern .wmv - YouTube I think Brian May has played some phenomenal solos in his career.... I find that his very tasteful note choices...... everything is masterfully phrased and performed....and I would be remiss if I did not mention that he has excellent tone. |

Re: Bohemian Rhapsody Solo

My settings are as follows: Lead channel ( settings as if looking at a clock) Deep Switch - in Presence - 10:00 Reverb - off Bass - 10:00 Mid -3:00 Treble - Noon Volume -9:30 to 11:30 depending on venue Gain -3:00 Tone Shift - in I use single coils (slightly hotter vintage output but vintage style....Eric Johnson pickups or HS2, HS3 and HS4, and I also use Hot Rails) and my stage volume is not overly loud.....if I can get away with it on a bigger stage I would have the volume set at noon to 1:30 and roll back the gain a bit. As it is these days for bar cover bands I usually have to play at a moderate level on stages for rooms that accommodate 300 to 1500 people. I usually only play various Fender Strats or my tele. Depending on the strat the amp sounds a bit different. In addition to the Eric Johnson Signature Strats I also use a Malmsteen Signature Strat. I will post a clip of that as well, kind of a Gambale type thing......thanks again...I really liked your tone and playing. Cheers mate Here is the link I was referring to: http://youtu.be/xvpsPYziByY Last edited by countstratcula; 12-12-2011 at 10:55 PM. |
