My practices on YouTube

Rick Aiello · From: Berryville, VA USA

I recorded my C6, E9 and C#m song "sets" on YouTube .. as a summer project.

I put them in this Playlist ... feel free to subscribe to my channel ... I'll be adding to this list in the future ...

Disclaimer : Parkinson's has taken away my fine motor control to the point where any natural vibrato has been eliminated. I can still slant ... but moving the bar at a different frequency than my tremor ... well, it isn't pretty so I quit playing for close to a year. I stumbled across the "Virtual Jeff" whammy which lets me at least put on a subtle vibrato at the end of a phrase. It's not ideal but it gets me playing again.

Mahalo ... Mr. Green

One point of interest ... I've always liked the "pointy" tip on my BJS Jerry Byrd bar ...

I'm also a big fan of a conical indent on the backside ... for reverse slanting . The BJS had a "lip" initially ...

The BJS' hardened steel is too tough to drill out ... so I took a Dremel with a grinding stone tip ... and started grinding . Took awhile, that steel is really hard ... but I managed to get a nice, recess ... then smoothed it out with some epoxy putty.
