Scott,
Nice instrumental tune!
I was surprised that Les Paul could produce such a sound.
Your guitar sounds are always beautiful.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Thanks Shigeki. Glad you liked the guitar sound. Thanks for checking out the song. Your comments are very much appreciated. Experimental? Hmmm, like Einstein having a thought-experiment on 2+2, you know your way around the perfect solution. Man, you are quite extraordinary at finding the perfect tone for each piece, and then let it fly with the perfect touch and taste. Thanks Marty. This song came of trying to play a bassline with my little finger on a Am chord. Most of the melody came from playing around that chord. Really glad you liked it. Scott...another great piece of music...your craftmanship is impeccable (as usual)...this would be a super track for the right cinema subject...I agree with everyone else about the tone you decided to "experiment" with...always love your stuff...peaceful and mysterious! Thanks Dan. Really appreciate your comments. Glad you liked it..

Another great one from Mr. Collingwood.
Contemplative is how I would describe this.
Great work. Thanks BT for the very kind comments. Really glad you liked the song. Scott,
Neat opening. Pretty cool tones you got out of your guitar! Nice fusion between electric and acoustic. Gets a bit saturated around 2:10, but resolves well. Thank you for sharing.
Misha.
Thanks Misha for checking out the song. Appreciate the comments. Very nice, Scott! Very cool melody, and love your tone.
Man, I have to get one of those pedals one of these days! Neat sounds indeed.
Enjoyed! Thanks Dave for checking out the song. The Helix has been awesome to work with. So glad not to be micing amps anymore. So many lost takes of a hum or click or the dog barking. Really glad you liked the song. Very cool guitar sound, especially in the intro. Lovely melody, those large pitch bendings are fun. That low melodic line adds nicely to the mood. Mysterious, ehthereal and beautiful. Very successful experiment.
Janne
Thanks Jane Your comments are very much appreciated and so glad you liked the song. Very nice Scott. I'd say the experiment was a success. Great tone on that guitar, and sure liked that sound around 1:59, was that a slide and a bend? I thought the entire tune blended together very well. You gotta winner.
Brad Thanks Brad for checking out the song. I was using a whammy pedal effect that is built into the Helix to make the octave shifts. Glad you liked the song.. Scott, you should experiment more often!
Super chops and exquisite tone...don't you just love those P90s!
This would work well in a movie.
Thanks Mario. I have been having allot of fun playing with this new pedal. placing distortion before the amp, in between the amp and cab. Has build in eq and a LA2A compressor so not to much processing is required during the mixing and mastering. Glad you liked the song..

Scott,
Yeah, I’m not sure what’s experimental about this . . . but regardless, it’s a wonderful instrumental . . . some really nice touches on that guitar playing (that slide up the neck in particular—great sound you’ve generated with that). That melodic riff you have running through (and which you end on) is very catchy. Cool listen!
All my best,
Deej

Successful experiment I would say.
Love your guitar playing and sound!
Thanks BD for checking out the song really glad you liked it. Hi Scott,
I love this melody. And your solos are beautiful. Like those slidings into 'heaven' from your guitar.
I haven't any feelings about a Gibson or a Fender when it comes to this kind of solo's. Just love them and that melody I said before!
But, as Mark said, what was your experiment? You didn't give him a proper answer to that. I bet it were those slides into Nirvana...
Have a lovely day, Scott,
Hans Thanks Hans for the very kind comments. The experiments were about taking a single chord with a repeating riff and see what could be created around it. Reallb\y glad you liked it. That’s smooth, hypnotic and cinematic Scott.
We especially enjoyed the piano with your guitar.
Enjoyed it!
J&B Thanks Bud and Janice. Really glad you liked the song..
Scott,

Hi Scott
Great what you get for a sound from your guitar
Sounds fantastic
Even if it is supposed to be an experiment,
it sounds like a super elaborated song
Great job
Many greetings
Andi ;-)
