Just an older guitarist, learning guitar covers! Simple, raw one-takes, jam alongs. Started in 2021 at age 46. Everything from modern metal to classic rock, and everything in between!
New guitar time. Ibanez Axion S Series, in color shifting Blue Chameleon. Clearance sale, as they no longer make these. Slim S body, reverse headstock, Gotoh locking tuners, Fishman Fluence Modern active pickups, fixed bridge.
Songster A.I. tab generator. What a game changer! I even signed up and gave them money! Worth the 10 buck subscription. Have it attempt to generate full song tabs. And you can change tunings, edit it, publish it online so now others can see it. My last 5 to 6 covers are all songs I discovered thru algorithm, and created the tab to help me. Even if it's not perfect, it helps you get started. It's good at finding the tuning etc. Like it knows the song is probably in Drop A, or some weird thing like that. You have complete freedom to adjust tunings, pitch etc. It's awesome 👌 The list below are songs I generated and contributed!
My latest cover challenged me like no other. Humbled me. But might be one of my best covers and a bucketlist song. I've never struggled so much. Lol. And had to practice every day, 5 min a day. For a couple weeks now. I'm still not happy with it. And I NEVER need this many takes after take, after take. Here is a partial list 🤣🤣
Just had a cover REMOVED by some group called Web Sheriff! Summer of 69 cover. Which is funny because it happens to be my most viewed cover with 12k views. And there are probably dozens, if not hundreds of this song, guitar covers on here. Some 15 years or older. And a copyright strike? WTF. I get it...it's copyright material. But no warning? So just a heads up. I usually have ZERO issues. They could have just BLOCKED it too, and let me try appeal. I've done that before. Where is the fair use? It's for fun, not money. Any others have issues like this?
What a year! Thank you subscribers! 700. Wow. I would have been surprised with 200. My 3rd year of covers and learning, was a big one! I did some major bucketlist challenge songs, my learning got faster, learning by ear improved, I started to improvise and add my own touches to covers, tried other genres like country, blues, dabbled with slide guitar, different tunings. The support has been great! I started at age 46, and will be 50 next year. Not bad for a late start! Rock on! Let's have a great 2025. Keep rocking!
