Videos of my Band

I'm not sure that I share with you these two nice videos shoot by the BAX a video platform dedicated to the promotion of regional artists

First clip is "Got a Girl" one of my original composition played in what I called "Mississippi tuning". The second clip is a cover of Lucky Peterson called "Good Thing". I play my two telecasters my NAsh TL-72 Custom Thinline in open tuning for the first one and my original Thinline Custom Telecaster. Don't forget to select HD and Enjoy !

Thanks a lot Robert i greatly appreciate your comments ! As for the amp it is a Fender Tweed Vibrolux (a 5F11 build) clone assembled by a friend of mine in Limoges (France). As for the effect a little slapback with a TC electronic Flashback Delay stompbox, a clone of TS808 (done by the same builder than my amp) and that's all :dude

Wow! I'm blown away, Jipes! Playing and tone are both very tasty. The recording quality is off the charts.

Makes me wish I was a better guitarist. As it is, about the only thing we have in common is that our beards are graying in a similar way :)

That's a 10 watt amp is it? Sounds sweet.

Thanks a lot Marnold I'm just a persistent player :running I guess years have done their job training my ears. As for recording the video was captured live in one take but we recorded everything with separate tracks. As for the bear you damn right it's almost like a white father Christmas now :)

Yes it is but it can be quite loud I never had to use my Deluxe Reverb since I have this little gem

Awesome Jipes! What everyone said above +1! Nice to see you all in action having listened to your CD.

BTW: Q: how can you tell a French blues band?

A: The bass player wears a beret...;)

Thanks a lot Jimi it was fun to record

Quality playing and fantastic looking videos, Jipes. Very impressive to say the least. I really enjoyed watching these. Love your rig! To be honest, just listening to this with eyes closed reminds me of tuning in and listening to Austin City Limits. If you have more of these I'd love to watch 'em.

Jipes...........very tasteful playing. You sound great. What exactly is Mississippi tuning, low to high?

Nothing quite beats a low wattage tube amp because you can get those tubes to "really cook".

Thanks a lot I appreciate ! Hé hé no one was asking the question about the tuning I was surprised :thumbsup So from Low to High DADADD and it's variation in G DGDGDD the fun effect is due to the double DD on the high end and best effect obtained if you're not perfectly tune (chorus effect).

As for my amp I usually use it around 4,5 to 5 and that really start to crunch if you attack the strings hard
