Was playing with a new adoption :-) and seeing what kind of noises it could make. Also Ed Shaw had mentioned that he was experimenting with a wah pedal so I turned on a couple of effects and put a simple blues jam together. Came up with the title after reading an article on a lawsuit being settled with some of the members of Procal Harem. Hope they don't mind the play on words A Lighter Shade of Blues Guitar: Gibson ES339 Amp: Purdy Tubescreamer (Maxon 808) Compression Boss CS-3 Dunlop Wah ***** Song Summary ************* Title: A Lighter Shade of Blues File:A Light Shade of Blues.SGU Key=A , Tempo 85, Length (m:s)=3:00 No intro. 12 bar chorus, from bar 1 to bar 12.

Yeah! Awesome, Scott. Some great licks happening, and very fluid lines too.
339 looks great, I thought it was a 335 at first from the pic over on soundcloud.
Good stuff!

Good stuff! Thanks Dave for checking out the song. I really like the small body guitar which directed me to the es339. Small guitar with a really deep rich tone.

Hi Scott,
I don't think they'll mind, are they all still alive by the way? ;-)
again a very thorough and thick guitar sound you've produced.
Beautiful!

Scott, I liked the guitar tone. Those 339's are sweet! The steel was a very odd choice for a blues tune and surprisingly it worked well. Great playing. Well done. Tom

Hi Scott,
I (Alan) had a 335 & a 175 back in the 60's and 70's - wish I had them now! The slightly smaller body of the 339, in my opinion, lends it slightly better for rock than the 335 - but either one works for me!
Nice blues number - somewhat reminiscent of early SRV. Nice licks and great sound!
Alan & Di
