Sound Sample of AGP #481 - ''P O Q'' Paris Texas

Found this Video which was hidden away in a different folder to what I usually use for my Sound Samples, it was recorded back in December 2022.
So, just in case anybody wants to know what 2 empty beer bottles stuck in a box sounds like, this is it.
A Sound Sample of my take, on Ry Cooder’s Paris Texas, using AGP #481 “POQ” (Pride of Qld). :-)

"Thanks Doug" do most of my Beer Drinking at home these days, anywhere between $8 to $10+ a Glass at the Pub, compared to an equivalent amount in a Can at home for $1.93 :-D

Those are some honkin’ beer bottles Alan! Guitar sounds great, it’s ready for a trip to the local pub.

"Thanks A.D.", I nearly always use my favourite Heavy Wall Dunlop Brass Slide on my sound sample Vids, but every now and then a certain type of Guitar sounds better with a Glass Slide. :-)

Smooth Must be the Glass ! Shame about the Tenor ,give's me loads of practice on the Four ,and the are cheap ,except for my 1923 Gibson ,Nice play Alan even when its a bit dated, working whit a computer makes those things happen, it happend to me also a couple of times , lately when i finisch a Video, it does not end up in the video section but in the picture section, and everytime i look to see how it comes out its gone ,but its not gone its just in a other folder strange stuff software It can drive one crazy !! aaahh well we live a other day ! Cheeers Mate !!

Thanks, Alan.  Well get that tenor out and put it in an open tuning and play it some.

"Thanks UJ", Yep!, one of my favourite tunes to play :-)

I purchased that lovely Tenor back in May 2018, from an Australian company called Artist Guitars, who get their Instruments made in China (of course) to their own specifications, paid $249AUD for it, so guess its sort of a budget build, but sounds great, over the years, like a lot of my Instruments, I get them out with the intention of sitting down, and learning how to play them properly, ie; Fretting etc., but I do tend to give up easily, because the Little Hamfisted Arthritic Fingers, do struggle a bit with Chords, and I usually just revert back to the trusty Slide.

This Vid was done back in Dec 2022, and the Tenor has been since been relegated back to the top of the Wardrobe ;-(

"Thanks Rick", Paris Texas is one of fave tunes to play, I think this is the 5th one I've posted using different Gits, but don't think I've done a "Hats On Backwards Version", YET! :-D 

PS. It weighs in at 2.8kg / 6lb 3oz

"Thanks Poorness", I thought at first I must have posted it and filed it away somewhere, but after checking back, discovered I didn't post it anywhere, must have been one of those "Senior Moments" :-D

That is a good looking factory tenor to your right?   Is it a Goldtone?  Are you enjoying it?

Comment by Uncle John on April 20, 2023 at 1:03am

Liking that tone and tune.  Your play keeps improving.  This one is eerie and cool.
