Duke I'm listening to your blue mood album where you are the cover t-bone songs. i am amazed by how close your sound is to t-bones. Can you walk us through your set up in those recordings? I can hear an arch top guitar, very clean (almost too clean/acoustic - how?) no effects. Did you mic the acoustic output from the arch top separately? 

Also so I remember you talking t-bone changing where he picks to create an effect. I presume you do that too, in general, when playing in t-bone style?

 

many thanks

Hi Tony, Yes I do pick in different spots to get different sounds sometimes when soloing. As far as sound and gear, I used an early 50s Epiphone Zephyr Deluxe Regent archtop. If you hear the acoustic sound it was probably leakage in to the vocal mic as it was all recorded live. I plugged straight into a Fender deluxe reverb amp no effects unless you consider a tuner an effect.
