Academy Of Tone #66: the legendary guitar tones of Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour!

Academy Of Tone #66: the legendary guitar tones of Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour PLUS secrets of a top guitar luthier! On this week’s Academy Of Tone, Thomas is joined by special guest Oliver Hartmann to dive deep into the iconic and revered guitar style and tones of Mr David Gilmour. We’ve had many requests to cover Gilmour’s Pink Floyd tones on Academy of Tone, and Oliver is something of an expert here – he’s been playing internationally with the Pink Floyd tribute ECHOES since 2002. The guys will discuss and dissect Gilmour’s trademark sounds and style, and talk about the best ways you can get closer to achieving those tones. Of course, there are many ways to go about this, and you don’t necessarily have to own the same gear Gilmour has used either. Thomas and Oliver will show you how to get close with AMP1, BluBOX, and a number of other affordable solutions you can still readily purchase in music stores today. Some of the specific Gilmour sounds the guys will chase on the show include: Another Brick In The Wall (known for its clean DI guitar sound) and its celebrated solo Shine On You Crazy Diamond, with its clean solo and phase 90 tones The Money solo, with its doubled Big Muff fuzz effect The reverb sounds on Time Run Like Hell If you have any more Gilmour tones you’d like to request, join us live and leave them in the chat! Thomas and Oliver will get to as many as they can. Plus, in the second part of the show, the guys go in-depth with renowned German luthier Mathias Schindehütte to examine the ways different guitar paint jobs and finishes can affect the instruments sonically. Based out of Frankfurt, Germany, Mathias has been an in-demand guitar re-finisher and customizer, and he’s worked on thousands of guitars over the years… so he knows his stuff when it comes to finishes! _________________________________________________ Get your AMP1 MERCURY EDITION and IRIDIUM EDITION with 3 YEARS WARRANTY and FREE SHIPPING (within EU): https://bluguitar.com/produkte/amp1/ _________________________________________________ BluGuitar's Cabinet brochure & manual: https://bluguitar.com/media/pdf/bc/23... _________________________________________________ The new "Academy of Tone" SHIRTs are finally available in our webshop:-) Get yours here: https://bluguitar.com/produkte/mercha...
