    Captain Ed's AOTM February 2022: Pink Floyd - The Wall

    My favorite album ever. Learned so much musically and conceptually from it. A true masterpiece of a record. Gilmour does so many simple but effective lines that I always try to remind myself of when I over complicate a piece I’m writing. “Don’t Leave Me Now” and “Waiting For the Worms” are two...

    Bass amp setup

    I have the B450 MKII from them, I like the amp, really powerful and throaty midrange for me, but so much of the tone is in the fingers. Nice bottom to it as well. I’d just play around the with tone knobs until you find the right setting, or she do it, whatever sounds good to your ears. But...

    CAGED System – Changing Pentatonic Scales – Two Chords – D & C – Lesson 29
