People transcribing and playing note-for-note Alchemy songs have my deepest respect. Amazing work!

This is amazing. Sultans of swing is a song that is always close to my heart. I’ve been playing guitar for over 20 years and remember as a kid my dad played a video of Dire Straits Live Aid performance and the live version was very similar to this. I got my first guitar and my father said to me “Son. I want you to learn sultans of swing for me one day” he can back from the pub one night and got him to sit down and stuck sultans of swing on and played it note for note and he had tears in his eyes and was so proud of me. I’ve always wanted to learn the alchemy version so these tabs are absolutely perfect. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You’ve just earned yourself a new subscriber. Keep on rocking 🤟🏻 🎸

Awesome man, really superb! This will keep me busy for a week or two. 😬 Thank you 👍 Those lollar blondes have a beautiful tone. Just wondered if they get you even closer to MK’s tone on this Alchemy version when you crank that Princeton loud? I have a 99 US strat that I’m thinking about swapping to these PU’s from some custom shop ones to get closer to MK’s bell-like tone on this version .

@GuillaumeVrac

3 жыл бұрын

Thank you Lee! Those Lollar Blonde pickups are really great especially for the clean, and they go well with the Princeton. They have an eq that is rather bright but well balanced with enough dynamic and snap. To approach the MK’s tone there is also the Dimarzio FS1 in the neck position that is also a good option but this pickup has much more output and is darker than the the Blonde.

@leebroadley4288

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks very much for that man, really appreciate it. I was considering the Di Marzio set also as I’d seen that Mark used them around this early 80’s period. I have a deluxe reverb 65 reissue so I’m just looking for the ideal set that will allow me to get that gorgeous tone through it, particularly from around 7:00 in when his lead tone is isolated and he starts those repeating licks that eventually rejoin the song’s 2nd solo. Unbelievable tone!

@GuillaumeVrac

@@leebroadley4288 It's appreciated here. The Deluxe is maybe brighter as far as i know than the Princeton. Also sometimes modding the amp can be useful, by changing the speaker and first preamp tube. With the Lollar Blonde you would do a good choice i think
