There's nothing she's playing in that video that isn't in a beginners guitar course; if you've never seen someone get that good within a year then big deal, I doubt you see that many new guitar players anyway.
Do you think there are members on here who can't play as well as that? Or any that would say they can't without them being overly humble?
BTW, going back to your favourite guitarist, I'm in the middle of watching an instructional video series she made about song writing. You should defo check it out if you write songs.
I'm not really in to her personality, she's a bit Hollywood for me (I personally prefer a borderline autistic engineer type giving just the facts in educational vids) but I'm persisting with it expecting to get some valuable advice from her.
One of the marvellous things about guitar is just how much you can achieve creatively without being overly accomplished.
if you mean the Raconteurs vid in the OP, is a (very) customised Gretsch Jet which iirc wasn’t actually made by Gretsch but is absolutely badass.
I think both guitars may have had the mxr micro amp built in as well
I still wouldn't be surprised if her guitar signal was much lower in the mix than session players' guitar signals or even muted, not sure why it would surprise you - is it just Swift that you doubt gets that or do you think it's not something that happens in the pop world for anyone?
Have you never been watching a pop act on TV where someone is holding a guitar and you think "but there isn't any guitar playing in this song"?
And obviously I have no idea what Taylor Swift can play in her spare time but when TeleMaster used her as an example of a type not to lump St. Vincent in with, I assumed he would have been talking about the stuff she plays to her audience.
Not sure he's ever low in a mix though!
This was from the Raconteurs show I went to, they recorded the show live and gave you a CD just after the show which was pretty good. You definitely don't struggle to hear him...
