Tommy Emmanuel - Classical Gas (Live)



Uploaded by: guitarjjte
Video Description:
Yet another version of Classical Gas by Tommy. Found this on the internet recently. I'm guessing it was filmed early-mid 2002 at Sierra Nevada, Centre Stage.
Great version this, inluding segments of "Walk Don't Run" by The Ventures and "Saturday Night's Alright (For Fighting)" by Elton John.
Enjoy the master at work!

Yes, yes I can ... ( 1 month ago by kuponutEZA)
Yes, yes I can compare them. That's your opinion. It's my opinion that if you think two similarly shaped objects, both having six strings tuned at the same pitch are different; then you are missing the right side of your brain. I'm not going to say anything else, because it'd be tragic to have half of your brain gone.

that is impossible. i still can't believe that sound is just sound of guitar.!
impressive and beautiful.

Um actually if you lose one hemisphere of the brain then the other can compensate for that, you would have to re-learn things but it does not actually affect your intelligence...

Can you do 1 and 1/ ... ( 1 month ago by arachnid15)
Can you do 1 and 1/2 bends on the acoustic as EASILY on the electric? Or perhaps do pinch harmonics (squelies) on the acoustic EXACTLY THE SAME way you would do it on the electric?
I didn't think so...
Even the amount of pressure you need to exert on the strings to make a note is different since the electric has thinner strings and employs the use of an amp.
Peace.

...Wait, now you're talking about the gauge of the strings and the action; that has nothing to do with the guitar, just how you adjust it. You're not really sure what you're talking about, are you?
Also,you can hook an acoustic up to an amp too, electric/acoustic guitars. Acoustic guitars that have been modified so they can fit into an amp or speaker system. Emanuel is using one in this video.

Seems like your are missing my third point, aside from grossly avoiding my first two points.
Yes, I am talking about the gauge of the strings. Acoustic guitars generally employs the use of THICKER strings while electrical guitars generally uses THINNER strings... these differences in the gauge of the strings leads to the differences in the way one can play the instrument (thinner strings means easier bends and pull-offs, less force to hit hammer-ons, and so on)

Solid bodied ... ( 4 weeks ago by arachnid15)
Solid bodied electric guitars cannot be played without an amp while acoustic guitars can. TE is using an amp so that the guitar can be heard across the stage, but let say he's just jamming in the backstage.. he wouldn't need one.
If you CAN'T remotely tell the difference of the sound acoustic and electric guitars produce, then seems like you're the one who does not know what you're talking about.
If you are learning to play, good luck..Seems like you're going to need it.
Peace.
i do think that you ... ( 3 weeks ago by iainmcke)
i do think that you can compare the gutiar isntruments, they play the same and songs can be played just as well on each guitar (well i can anyway so i assume others can), but the main difference lies in the sound that comes out of it. yes you can compare them in playing ability shape etc, but trying to compare classical guitar music to electric guitar music is a bit like saying cheese and banana's are the same cos theyre yellow and food. different sounds/styles make these instruments different

I think he pushed the front of the guitar soundboard, taking the vibration with his hand, giving this wammy-bar effect

ya pretty much just bending the neck altering the action giving the wammy bar effece.. but be carefull if your gonna try it because it can throw the action off or damage your guitar

I saw him perform a few days ago here in Antwerp (Belgium). This man is truly amazing! He does the neck-thing constantly (at least 8 or 9 times in the show). Defintely something for professionals on professional instruments: don't try this on your cheap Asian knock-off or you'll ruin it.

How any vid's did you copy/paste your STUPID comment on?
Stop stating opinion as fact.
An opinion the vast, VAST majority don't agree with. What do yeh want? Some brownie points? Some channel views? The one other guy on YT who shares your opinion to say "Really? Me too!"
Get a life man

Or could it be that he is bracing the soundboard with his right hand and pushing the neck with his left hand, which slightly detunes all the strings?

Slash sometimes uses neck bends and he is a good example of a worst case scenario. When doing a neck bend, his guitar's neck actually snapped, propelling the headstock into his face and stabbing a hole in his lip.
Sounds cool but use with caution. :)
