Damn, that was great. The only PJ song I can play (and I use the word play lightly) is White Chalk. I wish I could play like that!

Great indeed.

I'd like to know the tuning of "Who the fuck" since it seems she also used it for the live solo version of "Big Exit". Does anyone know? ;)

^He lists the tuning in the YouTube video description: CGDG(CD). The Letter is apparently open B, a tuning I've never tried or know how to do.

Uh Huh Her most unique quality seems to be the open tunings. Apparently it wasn't enough for her, since she was ultimately disappointed with it.

I wish I could get his tone. Need a Jazzmaster or something. My strat is too squeaky clean. Apparently, though, PJ herself used really bad amps to get some of her tones.

He's on a PJ roll. We should request something. Any ideas?

Hi, the blue offset isn't Jazzmaster, it's the custom guitar with humbuckers called Sonicmaster (http://www.silentium.newmail.ru/sonicmasterguitar.htm), that's why The Letter sounds cool.
And make request, I'll see what I can do.

Welcome to the garden. You're an awesome player! Could you try doing Hook, Meet Ze Monsta, 50FT Queenie or Long Snake Moan? :grin:

Maybe I'll do 50FT Queenie & Hook. Both of them too easy, you know. Now I'm trying Uh Huh Her...
I love to play Rid Of Me, but there is too much covers of this song on youtube. And again - it's too easy :)

^ Those were insane covers! They seemed more like the actual instrumentals than a cover tbh, they were so spot on.
50FT Queenie was my favorite, I think I hit the Like button like 3 times on that one. :laugh:
Thanks for taking requests.

Those were really good. Darn, I wish I could play that well soooooooooo badly! Oh well, I've only been playing guitar a year. I suppose I have a lot to learn. How long have you been playing guitar Lo-Fi suicide?
