Two Taylors? 

[maplebaby]

nope just one Taylor.

Ah, I couldn't make out the headstock on the sunburst but it looked like a Taylor pick guard. I liked the song but was confused by the guitars and ... you know ... this is the Larrivée forum.

Not one of your best. I really like the tune. Love CCR.
Maybe you all were tired. Enthusiasm seemed lacking.
It was an easy video to listen to, tho.
The vocals were okay.
The shaker main forward stroke should be very sharp. That beat should be the "snare" the other 3 beats are the "hi-hat".
The rhythm guitar was not a full and complete stroke. The rhythm guitar makes the tune, and as a result, the rhythm guitar did not allow the lead guitar to stand out.
Need more energy.
Just my humble opinion.

don't think Taylor ever used that kind of pickguard but whatever.  Confused that not everyone plays Larrivee guitars, must be a confusing guitar world for you then:)  I'm done here - it's petty people like you that i don't have to deal with - there are enough i do, but when it comes to music there's no room for it.  I hope you have a great time looking at your Larrivee guitars and no other brands.  I will miss the very kind people that are here but you're the worst:)

why don't you post something, probably never happen because your 'gift' is just criticizing those that do when you don't.  I really couldn't care less about your opinions unless your will to put your efforts out for others to see and give the same feedback.  I'm sure you won't - i would say spend the rest of your life trying to be kind and complimentary or just keep your opinions to yourself unless ask because honestly very few people, if any, want your opinion. Spend more time practicing, doing nice things for others and don't think to highly of yourself.  That's should keep you very busy.

Wow. Are you not over reacting ... just a little bit? I always tease Taylor owners. It's what I do. If you hung out here and didn't just post covers of popular songs, you might know that. I thought my last post was fairly conciliatory but apparently you're not in the mood. Anyway, didn't know it was a contest but I've posted lots of music here AT THE LARIVEE FORUM, strangely enough, all played on Larrivée guitars. All written by myself. Something else you might know if you actually hung out here. I suggest you get over yourself. Have a nice day.

Dale,
I make observations. My observations on "Lodi" were correct. You should have never posted that video. Other works with yourself and others have been uniformly superior. I will note however, we have asked you about video and audio setups you use and have never got a response.
The ONLY time I have EVER posted music online was to show the Larrivee forum I actually could play the guitar.... I did it cause another local forum member who heard me play said I needed to. My musical past is varied.

These are over two years old, and I am better now. You are welcome to listen and to make comments. As is anyone.
I can make some more recordings and maybe do a video if you further think I need to prove something.

Too bad Dale you feel this way. Good Luck in you future endeavours.

This is the 1st time I have seen anyone here post a response to one of your many vids that was not a typical response of great playing... vid, well done etc. The opinion posted like all the previous positive ones seemed as genuine. I was surprised by the attacking response it generated.

I cannot stress enough that this Forum welcomes non-Larrivee players and owners, tho your posts at times appeared (to me) somewhat disingenuous with no real interest in the Forum (tho I believe you offered advice on a room humidifier once) nor any interest in Larrivee Guitars (I'm still unsure if you have ever played a Larrivee electric). Most members here at least those who play electric also own other brands.

Again Dale the best of luck in your career and musical endeavours I enjoyed watching your videos and talent.

Two Taylors? 

Looks/sounds like a Gibson

Jees. I said I liked the song. All their videos are well played and well done. What does the guy want? Adoration?

Ahhh, life on the internet, ain't it grand?
Kinda figure if one posts a video for people to view, then one *should* be open to others views (good or bad) , or don't post.

I'd hate to see what the guy would have posted if I said I didn't like the song.
