I've always liked the way Hank plays this one so I got Andrew my son to make me
the backing track and just uploaded it to youtube in HD.
Hope you like "Fields of Gold".
Phil

Hi Phil

Fabulous playing and sound....an awesome performance!!!!!
I also love your interpretation and your guitar looks magnificent.

What pickups does it have?....they sound nice.

PS: Your accoustic guitar skills are brilliant....what grade of strings does the accoustic have.
I must add that your bending skills are great!

Cheers
Spike

Thank you Dick and Spike for your nice comments.

Spike - the Strat has Kinman Hx (Marvin series) pickups,
and the acoustic has violin pickups mounted inside the soundhole under the bridge and a preamp.

The acoustic strings are Newtone Django standard 11-46.
I love playing the acoustic so always looking out for Hank songs where he uses acoustics.

Cheers Phil

Hi Phil, very nice. That is a nice song. Was it originally an instrumental or was it a vocal song? Nice rig aswell, keep on posting I like it when someone puts on a video of them playing a song, anyway thanks for that. keep it up.

Regards Sam.
