_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _

[Dbm] _ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _
_ _ Hands up. _ _ _
There you are, sir. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Feels really thin, _ kind of slabby. _ _
It feels like a Strat headstock to me.
I can't tell if it's a 70s, you know, like the big oversized 70s vibe.
What is this crazy thing I have?
Single coils.
_ Weird.
That's cool.
_ [C] _ _ [E] _ _ _ [B] _ _
[E] _ _ [A] _ _ [E] _ _ [F] _
[E] I'm digging the neck.
It feels like it's got a relatively flat radius.
Is it a Tele style bridge?
What's going on [Am] here?
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ [E] _ _ _ [G] _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[N] I'm not used to playing blindfolds, so bear with me on that.
_ _ [F] _ _ [Gb] [E] I'm [N] _
so used to playing my Sig models, which are not like a traditional Tele,
but this feels like _ _ a weird Jazzmaster with a Tele setup almost.
You know what I mean?
That feels like a Tele [Am] _ selector.
_ Kind of like a speed knob Tele kind of vibe going on.
_ _ [E] _ But it's definitely not a Tele shape, and it's narrower, like thinner.
[D] Can I take this thing off?
_ On me.
Alright.
_ _ [F] _ _ [A] [Db] Holy.
What?
[N]
Okay.
_ _ _ [D] _ _ [C] Dude, I'm digging [Bbm] the _ [D] _ [Bb] black [Am] inlays on this.
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ _ [E] _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ Maple and black look so good [C] together, I think.
[Bb] Really cool.
I love [E] the pickguard too.
I like how [F] it's all _ [Bb] swoops down [E] through the guitar.
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ [E] _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [E] _
Tele's are a little more boxy feeling, and this has the contours _ of a Strat in a way.
It's like space-aged, but retro, kind of Art Deco-y kind of vibe. _
_ _ This [Am] _ [G] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ is pretty light, but it doesn't feel neck heavy at all.
It kind of feels really well balanced.
_ _ _ _ [D] _ I would play this.
_ I would play this live.
_ _ _ [Ab] _ [Am] _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ [E] _ _ [Am] _
_ _ [Bb] _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [N] _ _ _ _
The clean tones are amazing, and even when I switch over to the distorted,
the higher gain channel on this amp, it's still [B] tight.
It's not all [C] blown out.
[Bm] _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
[Gb] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [C] _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ [E] I mean, it's crazy.
It's a single coil, but it's chunky. _ _
It's holding its [G] own.
_ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ [G] _ _ [D] _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ I really dig that neck pickup.
It's very romantic sounding. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
And you can reach that [B] fret nice and easily.
_ That's cool.
_ _ [A] I _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
[A] _ _ [Am] _ [B] _ [E] _ _ _
want [Eb] to write a Pink [G] Floyd record now.
_ _ [Gm] _ _
I [Cm] kind of just want to take this back to my [G] place and play it all day now.
_ [Abm] _ [C] Whatever plans I had [D] for today are [Am] out the window now.
Me and [E] you, buddy, [Gbm] we're going to hang [Em] out.
_ _ [D] I [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ dig it.
Can I have it?
_ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _ _
