Sanford & Son theme -- bass and guitar

[Dave W]

Just recorded yesterday by a member of the TDPRI (tele forum). Apparently he's the bassist.

In the thread over there, somebody described this as "Aunt Esther funky". 





From the YT description: To answer everyone's question, Matt had this to say - "I'm playing through and Hugh's and Kettner Rotosphere pedal. I'm also using a Morphous drop tune on the octave setting to get the effect of a Hammond B3 with the draw bar open. Also playing all inverted chords from the 8th fret and up and using Analog Mike's compressor to get just a little more sustain."

I like that a lot!

Excellent!

Yeah that was cool.  Clever use of effects to get that tonewheel sound!

I love this. It's not just how well he knocks off the Hammond sound, but the feel is that of a keyboard player, and not a guitarist trying to play keys. The chord voicings and little fills are spot on. Bravo!
