LCE011 FREE BIRD

| | Comments (0)

The most-requested song so far was, of course, Free Bird, by Lynyrd Skynyrd. I took a slightly different approach to this one I played five different guitar parts, all live bass, clean electric, acoustic, slide, and solo.

It may not be the best one-man live version of Free Bird, but it may well be the most ... comprehensive.

To get different parts playing at the same time I used a BOSS RC-2 LoopStation pedal, and to play different guitars -- bass (which is a Firebird detuned an octave), acoustic, various electrics -- I use the Line 6 Variax modeling guitar, and to switch between the guitars and amp/fx I used the Line 6 PODxt Live. Oh, and that nifty slide I am using, that you can flip around to play chords, is the Axys slide by Shubb.

Free Bird was requested by Oliver Patrick Threshie, and neeracher. So BLAME THEM.
