Miri and me did a living room production of Chris Isaak’s „Wicked Game“ with my Stringmaster replacing the standard guitar.
On C6 the original key is perfectly playable, but we transposed it for Miri’s voice and that why I had to go up the fretboard and play the melody-riff much higher. But nevertheless it sounds very good in my ears.

Hope you like it. Constructive criticism and suggestions about my playing are very welcome because I’ still consider myself a beginner. Perhaps I still slide a bit too slow to pitch and could use a stronger vibrato …

Tuning: C6 (high G) / Amp: Kustom Defender 112 (tubes changed to 6L6 and „vintage“ switch active to bypass the Master control)

Very Fun! It sounds great! The steel playing sounds good to my ears. Very well produced. I really like the groovey lighting an ambient feel of the whole product. Smile

That's a really nice job, Steffen. I appreciate the discipline of honoring the ambience vibe and not getting carried away with flash. Good going.
