The guitarist Jacob Moon has found the best way to play Subdivisions by RUSH that I’ve heard ever heard! He performs it with such simplicity and grace that it strikes a certain chord in your heart that moves you. His striped down version is a master piece!
In this video he uses a Larivee Acoustic, Godin Montreal acoustic/electric, Gracie Guitar Stand, Porchboard Bass (kick drum sound), RCA Dictaphone, Lexicon JamMan looper, Fender Vibrolux Amp, Danelectro Daddy-O Distortion Pedal, Electro-Harmonix Memory Man Delay, Shure Beta 58 Mic, Pendulum PreAmp, G7 Capo, ZOOM H4 handeld digital recorder, Lexicon LXP-1 Reverb (modified).
He also uses this neat device called a JamMan. It’s basically a live digital looping device. I just heard about the product and I’d love to hear back from some of you who have tried this thing out.
At one point in the video, the camera shows Jacob tapping this weird piece of wood. It’s called Porchboard Bass (kick drum sound) and it sounds great! I had the chance to try one out in the 12th Fret and man was it neat! An old buddy of mine Sue should check this thing out, I think that it would compliment her style perfectly.
So I hope that you enjoy this video.
Keep on Jammin’
This is a great post, I stumbled across your story while looking for music downloads. Thanks for sharing, I’ll be sure to recommend this site to others.
I had not seen this yet. I’ve messed around with some looping before on my delays (e.g. DD-20) and through a looper, and I can say it’s definitely not as easy as this guy makes it look like!
BTW, great guitar blog you have here. You have a lot of really interesting content.
Thanx Linwood Tuner!
Hey Brett, what settings did you have you DD-20 on when you tried figuring out this tune?
